Hi, I'm afraid you are going to have to clarify a few things,
and/or do some debugging of your own here.  I've just been
forwarded a separate report where you claim(ed) this is the
solution?  I gather you no longer believe that??

This could be a whole lot of things, and possibly specific
to your graphics card.  It is impossible for me to say on
the information given.

I will take one punt though, now that I have some inkling this
may be with kernel 2.6, and suggest you look at the initialisation
order of related things after a cold boot.

If simply restarting stm makes things better, it is possible
that we are initialising something too early (or late) now,
before udev and/or other mechanisms fully configure the all
console vt's or so.

But I'm not going to be able to do much here without a tested
patch, or a much more detailed analysis of exactly what is
going wrong on what sort of systems.

Is anyone else (not) seeing this?

  Ron
