Bug#195134: Not a crash, but a blank screen
I must have been fast asleep when I reported
the bug, because X does not crash at all.
The problem is that the screen goes blank (black).
If I then blindly press the right buttons I can
still exit X. Sometimes VGA mode displays correctly
and it is possible to restart X (I do not use XDM).
In other cases the screen remains black when X has
shut down and my only option is to login from
another host and initiate the dreaded shutdown -r
The problem is not the application, because I can
run mozilla without problems with the DISPLAY on
another server (host) without problems.
The symptoms seem consistent and repeatable.
