I suggest that for answers to the above and other newbie questions
you take a look at www.ssc.com/lg/. The Linux Gazzete has the answers
to MANY such questions and is a very good tool. For the answer to
your above question, look at Issue #6, Jan 1996 - Using ther KeyPad as
a VT Switcher. As I recall, that article covers what you are asking
about. That, and many other articles, will be time well spent.

If you put garbage in a computer nothing comes out but garbage. But
this garbage, having passed through a very expensive machine, is
somehow enobled and none dare criticize it.
