I recently upgraded this desktop from Sarge to Etch and pretty-much
everything has worked as well as before, or better, which is great.
However, I find that I can no longer switch between virtual consoles
using Ctrl-Alt-F1, Ctrl-Alt-F2 etc.
The 'getty's appear to be running OK, but I can't switch to them.
$ ps ax|grep getty
3911 tty1 Ss+ 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty1
3912 tty2 Ss+ 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty2
3913 tty3 Ss+ 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty3
3914 tty4 Ss+ 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty4
3915 tty5 Ss+ 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty5
3916 tty6 Ss+ 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty6
14354 pts/3 S+ 0:00 grep getty
I don't even know where to start on this one: any ideas, people?
Cheers,
Dave.
I'd start by seeing if a Ctrl-Alt-Backspace kills X.
I might also look for a tool to verify that the Ctrl, Alt, and Fx keys
are producing the correct keycodes. It may be that your keymapping is
just ever so slightly off.
