Hi,
I had a similar problem with a two-framebuffer setup. To fix it, I had to
"#define HAVETEXTMODE 0" in drivers/scr_fb.c.
Greg, is there any chance that this option (and the "EMBEDDEDPLANET" one)
can be moved to the config file, to make it easier to find? Also, could
(some of?) the options at the top of "device.h" also be moved to the config
file?
Kind regards,
Jon Foster

Thanks for the reply Greg.
VTSWITCH doesn't seem to make a difference.
Below are the only options that I have enabled in my config config file
.....
OPTIMIZE = Y
MICROWIN = Y
NANOX = Y
MICROWINDEMO = Y
NANOXDEMO = Y
NANOWM = Y
HAVE_FILEIO = Y
HAVE_BMP_SUPPORT = Y
HAVE_GIF_SUPPORT = Y
HAVE_PNM_SUPPORT = Y
HAVE_XPM_SUPPORT = Y
HAVE_FREETYPE_SUPPORT = Y
ERASEMOVE = Y
UPDATEREGIONS = Y
USE_EXPOSURE = Y
FRAMEBUFFER = Y
NOMOUSE = Y
NOKBD = Y
In a bizzare twist, if I load nano-X during startup while Aurora has focus,
the switch from Aurora to vc/1 works, and everything is fine.
If I disable Aurora with the same scripts, I'm back to where I started.
BTW : Forgot to mention in first post : using Mandrake Linux 8.1 standard
distro.
Regards,
Steve.

You might try compiling with the config option VTSWITCH=N
and see if anything different happens.
