Hello Cyril,

There's nothing unusual in the logs.

That I don't know.
But once kernel logging was working fine:
Apr 15 18:36:22 mash kernel: SysRq : Emergency Sync
Apr 15 18:36:22 mash kernel: Emergency Sync complete
Apr 15 18:36:28 mash kernel: SysRq : Emergency Remount R/O

and the next time:
Apr 15 20:53:38 mash kernel: SysRq : Emergency Sync
Apr 15 20:53:38 mash kernel: Emergency Sync complete
^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@

BTW I should have filed this as bug report for xserver-xorg-video-intel,
because with vesa or fbdev the vt-switching works, albeit xserver is
a wee bit slow.

Krgds, e.
