Userspace modesetting is known to be racy and broken, so people don't
really want to waste time on digging into bugs which are most likely
flukes. But if you can bisect this issue to a specific patch a fix should
be possible.

Again I got no clear answer to the question asked, so I guess now it's fair
to assume this must be the right place for discussion after all.

I've installed openSUSE 12.3. Its 3.7.10-1.16-default and server 1.13.2
behave nicely. Beyond installing Mageia 3 to get 3.8.13 and 1.13.4, and as
one who does not build software even via proxy, I'm open to suggestions how
to get kernels and/or other xorg versions needed to perform bisection.

This problem is differently present with Mageia 3's desktop kernel 3.8.13.4. The ttys are left usable on startx exit, but the exit log X prints to screen is scrambled from mismatch between character size and line length. I don't know whether to try older kernels, or newer, even if I knew where to find any.
