In my home desktop, I have some onboard Intel Sandybridge video chipset and the xf86-video-intel-2.17.0_1 driver. I think this is a defect in the driver but once you are in the graphics mode, you cannot return to the text mode. When I press Ctrl+Alt+Fn to exit to text mode, I just see some garbage. Fortunately I can press Ctrl+Alt+F9 to return back to the graphics mode. -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:sudakov@sibptus.tomsk.ru
