virtual-terminal

I have Radeon card connected over HDMI to my TV.

To resolve bug with HDMI-sound, I switch between virtual terminal and GNOME desktop each time the TV is switched on with CTRL+ALT+F1 and after console appear with CTRL+ALT+F7. It's ugly, but its worked for me.

Since yesterday I got system freezes on CTRL+ALT+F1 - no reaction on keyboard, mouse pointer disappear at all, GNOME desktop still displayed. Probably has nothing to do with HDMI.

Any suggestion how to resolve it?

In this case, kernel 3.3 has seen some very good power management enhancements that are… >>> More
