linux crashes when switching between vt7 and vt8
I am using debian woody with kernel 2.4.25 (backports.org) and kde
3.1.4. X uses the driver from nvidia. When I start two graphical vts
using kdm and try to switch between them using Ctrl-alt-Fx, somtimes
the x-server, to which i am switching, restarts. Some times the wohle
system crashes (even ctrl-alt-backspace wont help). This happens
after approx. 20 times switching. After a crash, I cannot find anything
specific in the logs.
Since I thought, the nvidia-drivers causes this, I tried the driver
nv. But that didnt help. I also tried different kernel (2.4.18, 2.4.21 and
2.4.25) and different kde versions (3.1.3, 3.1.4) -- with no success. When
I start my second X-server from vt2 using startx, the problem did not
occur (at least until now). So I think maybe kdm is the problem.
Does anyone know this problem and can give some hint?
Regards,
Juergen
