[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#684069: fglrx-driver: Virtual terminals frozen after resolution change

[Gustavo]

Package: fglrx-driver
Version: 1:12-6+point-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I have recently reinstalled fglrx after the whole Xorg 1.12 debacle. It now changes the resolution of
a VT like the radeon driver, however it doesn't work properly. While it loads X and kdm ok and the
system is mostly functional, I cannot Ctrl+Alt+F# to enter a virtual terminal. They seem all to be
frozen at "waiting for /dev to be fully populated", point where fglrx makes a transition to my native
resolution. The terminal isn't only failing to draw - it is nonfunctional, not accepting any sort of
input (I have tried to login and execute commands; no dice).

Furthermore, and I don't know if it's related or not, so I'm mentioning anyway, the computer doesn't
power off. It seems to halt ok, though (I'm not sure because I get no information whatsoever - officially
I'm still waiting for /dev to be fully populated). 

Neither behaviour happens if I uninstall fglrx and use radeon, nor were issues I had with fglrx 12.4. 
The xorg.conf I'm using is the exact same one I used to run 12.4.
