Re: After exiting Xorg, I get a blank screen
Hi I managed to get a more informative Xorg log, by using an xterm to issue a "reboot" command, rather than exiting openbox. This apparently allowed Xorg to close normally and at the end I have this report: [ 283.284] (WW) xf86CloseConsole: KDSETMODE failed: Input/output error[ 283.284] (WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_GETMODE failed: Input/output error [ 283.284] (WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_ACTIVATE failed: Input/output error [ 283.284] (II) Server terminated successfully (0). Closing log file. Also, when I try "setfont" in the console, it fails with this message: putfont: KDFONTOP: Invalid argument The font I requested definitely exists. I have the same problem if I specify the font in rc.conf, so do I possibly have a problem with some ioctl() commands? -- Best Regards Neoklis - Ham Radio Call:5B4AZ http://www.5b4az.org/

What gpu are you using? Intel? Do you have everything you need enabled from the kernel (DRI, modesetting etc)?
