I've tested this with ThinkPad T20 (1024x768 screen). It works fine,
as long as I do not suspend the machine, or I do not switch wscons
window.
- If I suspend the machine and resume it, screen mildly crashes.
it will not recover even if I exit X11. the console crashes too and
never recovers unless I reboot.
- if I switch wscons window while I'm on X11 screen, I cannot come back
to X11 screen.
do you have such experience with Tecra8100?
