Hi,

I modified my XF86Config to use vesa rather radeon (for TV-out issues).
When I use the VESA driver, I can get a correct X session but... when I
quit XFree86, the console is blank... I still can log to another console
and type "reboot" but that's not really nice...

Don't know if linked, but when set to one resolution (for eg, 1400x1050)
and switch with Ctrl-Alt-+, the screen gets "dirty" (stripes of color in
diagonal) until I come back to the initial resolution.

I also have VGA_CONSOLE_ATI_BROKEN_FONTSEL and VGA_RASTERCONSOLE
compiled in my kernel.

anyone knows why or how to avoid this ?

TIA,
	Jo

PS: here's a bit of conf I have
