There could be multiple issues in this bug.  First of all, I have never be able
to tested those demos with a Radeon card.  How EGL does modesetting may be
wrong or trigger a bug somewhere else.  Then there is no code to do VT switch. 
The screen will turn off when the demos end.

For EGL on DRM, it is suggested to base your work on eglkms.c, not other
EGL_MESA_screen_surface-based demos.  You will have to do KMS manually: easier
to see how it works and easier to debug on new hardware.  You might also want
to extend it to do VT switch.

(Note that eglkms is currently broken with mesa git head)
