Mm. The console VT switching is an ugly hack to deal with the fact that in the x86 world graphics reinitialisation is handled by userspace, and so we otherwise have races between graphis reinitialisation and X. I don't think it's helpful to further perpetuate that hack, especially when you have another mechanism for requestng a screen refresh. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
