Description
This test case tests whether virtual terminal switching works successfully with the Nouveau video driver, with kernel mode setting enabled. You must be using a video adapter supported by the driver, and Rawhide.
How to test
- Ensure the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter is not enabled in your bootloader configuration
- Ensure the file
/etc/X11/xorg.confdoes not exist, or is a valid file that uses the nouveau driver. If you are using the live image, ignore this step - Shut your system down entirely, then start it up again
- Switch to a virtual console: ctrl-alt-F2
- Log in to the console (as user root with no password, if you are using a live image to test), and run a test command
- Switch back to the graphical desktop: ctrl-alt-F1
- Switch back and forth again
Expected Results
- Switching between the graphical desktop and a virtual console should work correctly
- Both the virtual console and the graphical desktop should be displayed correctly, and this should work through repeated switches between the two
