The LpRing is > only used for that. no. as i described above, this recipe was digged from mailing list and solves the problem for some linux people. but not for me on OpenBSD and this guy on NetBSD. i mean "NoAccel" = "False": - X11 lockups after the first switching to text console and back, - X11 console shows trash while X11 reloads and eventually goes black, - text consoles are dead and black too, "NoAccel" = "True": - X11 console goes black after 1-5 of switching to text console and back, - text consoles are working normally. check out my original post at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xfree86&m=106528615425180&w=2 for both accelerated and non-accelerated logs. in the non-accelerated log, group of repeated >PRB0_HEAD (0x00000000) and PRB0_TAIL (0x000135a0) \ >indicate ring buffer not flushed shows number of switching to text console and back to X. _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
