> I can confirm this bug with 64 bit Arch Linux with DWM on a Dell inspiron 1545. I can only reproduce this when launching st from the CTRL-ALT-ENTER shortcut. Launching ST from dmenu causes no issue. Launching other terminals from CTRL-ALT-ENTER causes no issue. The kernel does not hang. The display does not work. I cannot shift tty's, but SYSRQ works just fine.

I won’t add a »I‐am‐so‐stupid‐to‐buy‐Apple‐hardware« or »I‐am‐a‐retard‐
using‐Arch‐Linux‐after‐the‐systemd‐disaster« flag.

The bug is outside of st.
