gdm (or somethnig) goes deaf when changing virtual consoles

This happens on etch, which I try to keep up-to-date. sarge is, as
usual, pefectly stable, quite boring, and very useful.
I'm using gdm as my login manager. I have six virtual consoles
configured. Graphics is an AIT-Raden-all-in-wonder 8500 card. RAM is
1G. CPU is an athlon.
a few months ago, I started experiencing this problem. Sometimes, when
changing virtual consoles with ctrl-alt-f*, instead of getting to the
other console I got a black screen, and whatever subsystem that
responds to ctl-alt-f* seemed to go deaf.
Usually it still responds in some way to the keyboard, by echoing tha
characters typed onto the screen.
Even control-alt-delete is nicely echoed.
Is this a known problem? Is there a known fix?
It isn't mission-critical, but I sure would like it fixed before etch
goes stable. My workaround is to run sarge instead.
