Created attachment 32365 [details] Successfull start of vt 7 I'm using kernel 2.6.33-rc2 and compiled the drm and Xdriver myself from the latest git repos. I have a 5200 with two monitors attached one 1280X1024 the other 1024x768) Now starting the Xserver and using it works fine. (much better than the version which is currently in debian experimental). But as soon as I start create another Xsession (on vt 8) via kde(4.3.4) change user I only get black screens. it is quite hard to get back to a working console, I don't know how I got it, but I got one back.

This would mean at 357 I started the second X Session. I'll attach both Xorg.*.log files (0 for the first X session, 1 for teh other)
Created attachment 32366 [details] Failed start of vt 8
I just upgraded to the latest Xserver from debian and linux 2.6.33-rc4 as well drm and vouveau driver from git. => now it works. Don't konw which software caused the trouble, but with this configuration everything is fine (and fast!)
resolved by mzself, so close it as well
