ATI fglrx problem switching between X and consoles
Hi all, I have a probelm with ATI fglrx driver... the driver (latest version: 8.36) works fine and is correctly configured on my CRUX with kernel 2.6.21, but when start X if I want switch to consoles the result is only a blank screen... the blank screen is however usable although I don't see anything... another error with fglrx driver is when I try to use graphical login with xdm... the xdm login window start correctly but the window manager don't start... and I have the usual blank screen... with xorg radeon driver all works fine... anybody have a solution for this problem?

There are 80 bugs related to 'blank screen' at ATI fglrx Bugzilla[1]. <snip>
anybody have a solution for this problem? Try disabling Direct Rendering/Composite in xorg.conf, it helped some people, afaik. Also, check (unofficial) wiki [2], you might find something there.
