Which driver do you use for your graphics card? There are some drivers that has problems leaving back the console to the graphics card.

Hey Aho,
Thanks for post, well i can see my xorg.conf file with
following entries:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "mga"

Is there and other way to see the drivers? i did try to locate loaded
kernel modules but cann't even locate 'insmod';-)

No, as the driver don't have to be a kernel module or a kernel module can be built into the kernel too, and if you want to list modules that are loaded, use lsmod.

Sorry, but I don't know how to fix this, as I don't have any experience of matrox cards and my google search gave no good answers.
