I just tested Xvesa in BL3 while online, and twice had a serious problem with it. I changed from the Xvesa terminal to a console mode terminal (don't recall the exact numbers) and when I tried to switch back to X I was not able to access either terminal (no blinking cursor), the CLI terminal continued to display, and I could not even reboot.
This is a dual monitor system (VGA and MDA).

I am back using the old Xvesa for BL3 and just managed to reproduce the problem while offline. I see vc1 and cannot use it or change to vc4 (the X terminal). I will try this eventually on a 1-monitor system to see if I need to simply avoid Xvesa in BL3.


It works okay on a 1-monitor system. I will avoid using BL3 with X on my 2-monitor systems.
