As you said, it is using vt. Unfortunately loading radeonkms didn't help. It actually seems to be a regression; the only RADEON line /var/log/Xorg.0.log now is the one that lists all the supported chipsets. Immediately after that line it ends with ==== [ 4005.835] (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa [ 4005.835] (++) Using config file: "/home/rjk/xorg.conf.new" [ 4005.836] (==) ServerLayout "X.org Configured" [ 4005.836] (**) |-->Screen "Screen0" (0) [ 4005.836] (**) | |-->Monitor "Monitor0" [ 4005.836] (**) | |-->Device "Card0" [ 4005.836] (**) |-->Screen "Screen1" (1) [ 4005.836] (**) | |-->Monitor "Monitor1" [ 4005.836] (**) | |-->Device "Card1" [ 4005.836] (**) |-->Input Device "Mouse0" [ 4005.836] (**) |-->Input Device "Keyboard0" [ 4005.836] (==) Automatically adding devices [ 4005.836] (==) Automatically enabling devices [ 4005.836] (==) Not automatically adding GPU devices [ 4005.836] (**) FontPath set to: /usr/local/share/fonts/misc/, /usr/local/share/fonts/TTF/, /usr/local/share/fonts/OTF/, /usr/local/share/fonts/Type1/, /usr/local/share/fonts/100dpi/, /usr/local/share/fonts/75dpi/, /usr/local/share/fonts/misc/, /usr/local/share/fonts/TTF/, /usr/local/share/fonts/OTF/, /usr/local/share/fonts/Type1/, /usr/local/share/fonts/100dpi/, /usr/local/share/fonts/75dpi/ [ 4005.836] (**) ModulePath set to "/usr/local/lib/xorg/modules" [ 4005.836] (WW) Hotplugging is on, devices using drivers 'kbd', 'mouse' or 'vmmouse' will be disabled.
