Hi,
Running squeeze on AMD64 arch, my system recently stopped to let me
get my consoles after I hit the ctrl+alt+Fn keys (n = 1 to 6).


When did it stop?

I can't be sure but that may coincide with that kernel*-trunk thing, when I had to go back to the nv driver as I couldn't get the proprietary Nvidia driver to compile with my new kernel.
FWIW, a few more details :
$ uname -a
Linux birdynam 2.6.32-3-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Feb 24 18:07:42 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9400 GT] (rev a1)


So are you still running nv? and what was the driver that wouldn't compile?
I run x86-195.36.15 on the latest Sid kernel and it compiles just fine, but I don't (yet) have a AMD64 system.
With nv I run into a lot of trouble on my system, the reason I use the proprietary driver. Works good.
