Hello *,
Could something like the attached fix be merged? It fixes a problem where the
kernel requests the X server to relinquish its terminal via SIGUSR1, but the X
server blocks in select() nevertheless.
The problem is not easily triggered, it requires a relatively idle system (no user
input, drawing), where "something" issues chvt just before the server blocks
waiting for events.
Best regards
Helge
