[Bug 309784] Re: Blank screen, unresponsive console when starting full-screen OpenGL apps

[Daniel Richard G.]

A few more details that may be of interest:

* All the above results were obtained without a desktop environment, or
even a window manager. Programs were invoked from a lone XTerm, launched
from a bare-bones ~/.xsession script.

* The OpenGL programs start without a problem in the first X11 session
after booting. After you log out, log back in, and start the same
program again, however, *then* you run into the above-described
behavior. (Something about the hardware not being re-initialized
correctly...?)

* Tested with Armagetron Advanced; fails the same as Kobo Deluxe.
(Probably a better program to test with, as no prior configuration is
needed)

* In the Openarena failure mode, the application program exits shortly
after starting. (The program's terminal output doesn't suggest anything
amiss, however.)
