Thanks! It doesn't work, though: l...@yun:~$ chvt 1 chvt: VT_ACTIVATE: Operation not permitted l...@yun:~$ Besides, I need to be able to switch by pressing keys because mott I have use for the consoles is when I can't do anything under X11 anymore. Like yesterday, I was changing the configuration of fvwm-crystal and restarted it a few times. That finally left me without any shell at all, so I wanted to switch to a console or terminate the X session, but it wasn't possible. The only thing I could do was to press the reset button. That's not a good solution, of course :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
