Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
My problem has two symptoms and it occurs since I am running Lucid Lynx.
Up to Karmic, it was fine.
Symptom 1:
When trying to switch to the TTYs using Ctrl-Alt-F1..F6, seemingly nothing
happens except that the keyboard and mouse are disconnected from the X server.
After Alt-F7, they are connected again. Bu the X server always stays on screen.
This happens on the installed system as well as on the live system
started from the Desktop CD's (I tried Ubuntu and Kubuntu).
Symptom 2:
After logging off of my KDE session and logging back on, the desktop effects
are gone and cann not be reactivated until the computer is shut down and
started again.
Even restarting without power off does not help.
I don't know if the presence of the unused NVIDIA 8200 graphics adapter
matters. But as it is on-board, I cannot remove it.
It is unused because this special graphics chip is known to cause lots of
trouble with Linux.
