When I switch to console it only shows black screen instead of text mode 
or framebuffer mode (but it is indeed in console since I can issue 
commands but I can't see it)

When I try to switch back to X it stay in black screen, do I can't make 
sure what status it's.

I tried both text console and framebuffer (vesafb doesn't work for me so 
I use uvesafb ) console but results are same.
