[Bug 525664] [NEW] daily 20100222 (+?) nouveau framebuffer works for X, unable to switch back to normal virtual consoles

[MichaelEvans]

Public bug reported:

Install as normal on a system that will default to nouveau framebuffer.
X loads
Switch to a virtual console (ctrl+alt+f1)

Observed behavior: Static image of last X information.
Expected behavior: Video-reset to standard bios console (old behavior) OR to framebuffer console (likely new behavior)

Further: logging in blindly and executing a touch command /will/ work,
IF switching back to X and using some equivalent to ps axf to observe
when the login scripts have finished running and leaves you with a shell
(bash) instead of the login script.


Attached is dmesg; I've stored a copy of /var/log to more normal storage and can upload other files if requested.
