[Bug 689309] [NEW] VT switch gives black console screen

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Before starting X all VT´s work as expected and I cat VT-switch as usual.
After starting X (via xinit)  the X-Screen appears on VT-7 as expected,
BUT ..
when doing a Ctrl+Alt+<F1-F6> switch the tty consoles become invisible. The user can type blindly but sees nothing.
When switching back to VT-7 the X-Screen appears (as expected)
When exiting X, ALL terminals are black (invisible); but I can do a blindly reboot.
