Roberto, What version of Mandrake are you using? I have this problem with 8.0 but not 7.2 (and not SuSE 7.3) My solution is to switch to a non graphical console before using the switch (i.e. Ctrl-Alt-F1). Then whenI switch back to Mandrake I hit enter and then switch back to X (i.e. Ctrl-Alt-F7). Is this a USB switch?
