Which part of "locked up console system" you don't understand ? :-)

( There is a smiley on that line. It was ment to be funny. No need
to get mad at me and send me suspicios white powder over snail mail ! )

Maybe I did not describe the problem detailed enough. I thought everybody
can check it for themselves :-)

After running "X 2>&1 | less" you get a black screen and it does not respond to
any keypresses any more.

I will take this to the xfree people as David S. Miler suggested.
