Hi Jim

It appears that you are using fbdev rather than nouveau ddx
(xf86-video-nouveau)

Can you please install it and open another bug report if the issue exists

Cheers
Emil

(In reply to comment #3)

Now using a radeon so I won't be able to reproduce it.  

Random stuff, ignore at will: 

Don't understand the comment about using fbdev -- I was definitely loading
nouveau for console and X, switching back and forth between proprietary and
nouveau, forgetting xorg.conf driver "nouveau" a time or two leaves
memories.
>&- is apparently fairly unusual, and I guess it's vulnerable to
unchecked fd reuse. Anyway I never got all that worked up about a
seven-keystroke workaround.  Thanks for the attention.

I see it now, while closing the debian bug I read the X log not just syslog.
