Description Gerald Pfeifer 2007-04-27 00:20:26 UTC
Today I updated my workstation, which used to run STABLE as of about a 
week ago, to the current state of STABLE.

After the obligatory reboot, the system comes up nicely except that when
starting X the screen remains black.  I also can no longer switch back to
the text console with <Ctrl><Alt><F1>.

This is the case regardless of whether I install ati-fglrxG01 or not.

Well. I broke the Xserver completely when I've updated the Mesa sources (6.5.3RCx). Could you downgrade xorg-x11-server to latest Alpha version?
Does this help?

Continued from Bug 269120 

yes, "downdating" xorg-x11-server makes video available again.
Comment 6 Stefan Dirsch 2007-04-27 15:07:41 UTC
Back to Mesa 6.5.2. Fixed.
