Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.2.0-1
Severity: important

Sometimes when switching back to X from another VT (console or X), the
session does not come back. Instead I get a black screen, and it
doesn't respond to input.

I can switch to other VTs however, even other X sessions, and they
work correctly, but the broken VT is only restored after killing the
session.

X.org log files don't show anything that looks suspicious. I *think*
this only occurs on the second of two X session, i.e. display :1.

This is a Thinkpad R60 laptop running kernel 2.6.24 (amd64) with vesafb.

Should be fixed in the new 2.2.0.90 in unstable.
