Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
My screen goes blank whenever i try to go to tty, unity (and compiz) won't start, logging out or shutting down turns my screen into digital noise and i have to shut it down with the power button. everything was fine before the dist-upgrade (including compositing and so on), and i successfully used the ttys if i don't run X.
sorry if this ended up in the wrong place but it's my first bug report! thank you!

Probably an issue with X. Are you able to get to a classic desktop? If not then seems an Xorg issue on powerpc.
