XWindows splitting



Hi.

Too often, when I'm switching many times between XWindows (XF86_SVGA of 
XFree revision 6 from Slackware 2.3, Trident 8900C 1MB, real and virtual 
resolution of 800x600, FVWM) to a text vt, the XWindows screen just ``splits''
into two parts and they reverse places. The application acts normally, and 
even the mouse moves as it should have moved (i.e. stops in the centre of the 
screen, where the split occurs) but, obviously, working in that way is VERY 
annoying. Refreshing screen doesn't help. The only way to solve this (doesn't 
work always) is switching a couple of times between text and graphics.
