--- Comment #39 from epierre <epierre at e-nef.com> ---

> So how are you trying to switch to a console, and how is it failing?

since the kernel goes in frame buffer mode, I don't have any console (except in
blind) so the alt+shift+F1 is possible but monitor goes off.

> Beware that your xf86-video-intel did not have the patches backported to make SNA stable on IVB GT1. 

Is there a way to get a more stable one ? or one backported correctly ? I can
go to some unstable for those drivers, it looks the mint ppa and so on exist,
not on the debian wheezy, but if you point me what could be acceptable I can
try there.
