Hi,

When I run Links in graphics mode on the Linux console, and switch to
another virtual terminal and back, the graphics is gone.  There is
only the following output:

       ---------------------- DirectFB v0.9.25 ---------------------
             (c) 2000-2002  convergence integrated media GmbH
             (c) 2002-2004  convergence GmbH
        -----------------------------------------------------------

(*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2006-12-20 21:25)
(*) Direct/Memcpy: Using SSE optimized memcpy()
(*) Direct/Thread: Running 'VT Switcher' (CRITICAL, 10522)...
(*) Direct/Thread: Running 'Linux Input' (INPUT, 10523)...
 (!!!)  *** UNIMPLEMENTED [fusion_reactor_set_lock] ***
[../../../lib/fusion/reactor.c:853]
(*) DirectFB/Input: PC Speaker (1) 0.1 (convergence integrated media GmbH)
[... snip by PG]
(*) DirectFB/Core/WM: Default 0.2 (Convergence GmbH)
(!) DirectFB/FBDev: Panning display failed!
    --> Invalid argument
 (!!!)  *** WARNING [still objects in 'Window Pool'] ***
[../../../lib/fusion/object.c:226 in fusion_object_pool_destroy()]
(!) [ 8865:    0.000] --> Caught signal 2 (sent by the kernel) <--


The last line is printed after I press ^C to regain control of my
terminal; but this does not work sometimes.  Any ideas why this
happens?  A libvga.org FAQ suggests the problem may be with Links.

regards,
Philip
