Hi everyone, I just did a fresh install of 10.0-RELEASE on my ThinkPad T430 (Intel graphics). I do not have a display/login manager (such as XDM or GDM, etc.) running on my system, so I do a simple "startx" to launch X and begin my XFCE4 session. However, when I attempt to exit X and return to the console, the screen goes dark and the usual combination of ctrl + alt + F* does nothing, nor does ctrl-alt-backspace. I can still SSH into the laptop, so the system has not crashed, it just seems like its a problem with X and/or the system console. This also happens when I attempt to test an Xorg config file via the method presented in the handbook: Xorg -config xorg.conf.new -retro Any suggestions or ideas is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Charlie cwr@sdf.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.org
