I can't even go to Alt+F1 .

Are you still seeing this with recent rawhide builds?
I don't see the blank screen, but I still can't access any of the virtual dectops (Alt+Ctrl + F1) bring all the servers dead.
Is this still a problem with recent rawhide releases?
Reporter, could you please reply to the previous question? If you won't reply in one month, I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Thank you.
