Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.3+10
Severity: important
With the most recent xserver-xorg package the X seems to work OK, but
the
associated virtual screens do something strange: they changed to be
shaded
(I can not come up with a better description) while the X-window
behaves
as
previously. The interesting part here is that when the system
boots, the
text is clear white text on black background, but after Xserver is
started,
the virtual screens go shaded. The texts are printed as expected, but
they
are hardly readable: it is as if a filter or curtain was drawn on
to of
the
screen. Another way to describe this behaviour is to say that the
brightness of the screen is turned to minimum.
I think this is an important issue, because it almost renders all
of the
virtual screens unusable.
