In my case the consoles work as expected at boot up and I can use them, but after some period of time after I have been using the desktop when I press <CTRL> F? my monitor goes off and when I switch back to the desktop it comes on again. I'm using "ati" in my xorg.conf with the built in video output on this box. If I don't use "ati" in the driver section of my xorg.conf the monitor goes off at almost anytime, desktop or console. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
