Hi all, this pertains to 6.1-PRERELEASE and is caused by devd calling 'syscons restart' on keyboard attach. More specifically it is due to allscreens_flags="-c blink 80x60" in /etc/rc.conf. This will then call vidcontrol and this totally screws up my X11 display (radeon driver). Killing X11 will _usually_ result in a normal console, but this is not always the case. Clearing allscreens_flags is also a possibile workaround. Also, on normal boot, vidcontrol will be called twice, once in normal startup, then via kbdmux/devd/syscons restart. Possible solution: Don't do a full restart, but refactor the keyboard code in syscons into a separate function and only call this function. I hope this can be implemented quickly and MFC'ed before 6.1. Thanks! Ulrich Spoerlein -- PGP Key ID: 20FEE9DD Encrypted mail welcome!
