So do I, and I have a decades-old muscle memory that tells me CNTRL-ALT-F1 will get me a logged-in console. Having to reprogram that is a (minor) nuisance. It will be a much larger nuisance for the new users who will diligently read up on Linux before trying it (yes, there are people who do that) and learn that CNTRL-ALT-F1 gets them to a console and ALT-F7 gets them back to X. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
