It all started because of Ilya. I tried to get the notification thingy running and could not see the mail notification icon - Naturally I CTRL-ALT-F1'nd to see what X warning if any exist and a slight sense of panic rose in me as I started keying in hysterically CTRL-ALT-F1 to F12.

Can you try 'chvt 1'?
I have the same problem on my Redhat 9 - CTRL-ALT-F1 et al. stopped working, and I have no idea why. "switchto 1" does work (I didn't check "chvt", I assume it does the same thing).
A long shot, but what the hell -- did any of you recently switched keyboards recently? I've had some problems (resolved now) with my Logitech USB keyboard.
