I have no NVIDIA hardware, still there are packages that install packages containing vdpau in their name. Any such installation causes trouble as the CLI tty(s) (a.k.a. virtual consoles) are not available to use as long as any library related to vdpau are installed. Removal of any package having vdpau in its name resolves the problem. Is this the issue with vdpau? System details : Debian Stretch with GNOME. Dell Inspiron 3543 Intel Core i5 5200 processor with integrated Intel HD graphics only. Regards Himanshu Shekhar

What trouble? Please explain what happens, and what you expect to happen. -- The media's the most powerful entity on earth.

VDPAU is also used for AMD GPUs, and can be used on Intel with libvdpau-va-gl1 (but I suppose it's less efficient than using VAAPI) so it's no surprise that is installed by default on most desktop installs. I would find it most peculiar if just installing the package could prevent you from switching ttys. I have no such problems on a pure intel system with vdpau packages installed. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 6FAB5CD5
