Hello,

I have an issue with the X server not cleanly shutting down on either an "init 
0" or an "init 6" or a "shutdown/restart/reboot form the GUI"

I can use the cde-login menu to select a "command line login" and it gos to my 
laptops "console text mode" cleanly.  But when I use the GUI as indicated in he 
first paragraph or the init scripts the screen goes completely black with some 
flickering snow on the uppermost line.

Is there some way I can adjust things (service dependancy or a legacy rc 
script) to
get the screen into a clean "comand line" like state on reboots or shutdowns.

I tinkered with the following (-t is temporary until net reboot). 

   svcadm disable -t svc:/application/graphical-login/cde-login:default
   svcadm restart svc:/system/console-login:default

Once it seemed to work, clean console text, (when I disabled/enabled/disabled 
the cde-login a few time) but it did not seem to do anything other than "steal 
the console".  

I guess I want to now what the GUI's cde-login actions of "logout" and  then 
selecting "command line login" does and can I add a similar set of calls (via
scripts or something) in the normal shutdown scripts.

Occurs on my laptop is a G70-250US (HP) but works on other hardware.

# uname -a

Thanks in advance.
