Bug Description
Boot into X, and into user.
When doing a ctrl-alt-f<N> where N is not 7,
then on returning to X by ctrl-alt-F7, most of the time succeeds, but occasionally, I'm left with a black screen with only a cursor visible.
I'd say that this can be repeated one time in 5, and may happen every time, if to a ctrl-alt-F7, and before X has returned, to a ctrl-alt-F<N>.
This machine has recently undergone a feisty->gutsy upgrade.
I am running the nvidia-glx-new restricted drivers.
Graphics card is:
03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6600 GT] (rev a2)
Please suggest what further information you need to repeat/fix this bug.
