Yestaday, I reinstall my guixsd, and install xfce4 as my desktop.
A problem faced is that: When I press Ctrl-Alt-F1, F2, F3 ...
I can not start a tty, instead of start a slim login picture?
Any suggestion? thanks!

Just the other day, I discovered that in GNOME, I could not switch to a
virtual terminal by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F2. Instead, the screen would
simply appear to freeze until I pressed Ctrl-Alt-F7 again.
In my case, this problem only occurs when I've connected an external
monitor to my laptop. When I unplug the external monitor, I am able to
successfully switch to a virtual terminal by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F2. If
you are using an external monitor, then perhaps you should try
unplugging it first?

Can you reproduce the problem in a VM created by ‘guix system vm’?
(Note that in QEMU you need to do ctrl-1 to go to the QEMU console, then
“sendkey ctrl-alt-f1”, and then ctrl-2 to switch back to the VM screen.)
If not, could it be that the problem has to do with the graphics driver
being used?

qemu vm works well, may be it is graphics driver problem as you said, I
will wait to update driver, thanks for the help!

When I revert "gnu: xf86-video-ati: Update to 7.10.0." , it works well.

Uff. I suspect it's related to this snippet from the ChangeLog[0]:
* The driver now takes measures to prevent other DRM master processes
(potentially from other local users) from accessing buffers created by
this driver while switched away to a different VT. Other DRM master
processes should only be able to access a single buffer anymore, which
contains only all-black pixels.
Are you willing to report this bug upstream? See here for information:
https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xorg/
We should probably revert this on 'master' meanwhile. Unfortunately I
don't have ATI hardware to test with, so it would be good if someone
else could try to reproduce this problem.
