Done that. Makes no difference at all--at least none that I can detect. Still
enlightenment_start brings up enlightenment for a second or so, then the screen
goes black--and is black on all VTs BUT after switching to one of VT1 to VT6,
and typing blindly--after about 2 minutes the console lights up and is back to
normal.
As soon as I switch to VT7, there's about half a second of seeing e, then the
screen goes black--and again all VTs follow being black.
BTW what do you mean by backlight keys?
Anyway I don't think that there's any `strange interaction', because before I
switched that #! switch to 90 everything was alright--apart from e-dialogs
complaining about unconfigured screens (or so, can't really remember the
wording). Thus it's certainly not a problem between e and my hardware.
I suppose I'll try to try the Phabricator, it seems to be somewhat difficult to
enter there...
C ya, e.
