Howdy,
I did my updates earlier. Usually I logout, go to boot runlevel and
restart services if needed and then go back to default runlevel and
login. I noticed a couple weeks ago that I no longer get a console when
I do a CTRL ALT F1. My monitors turn off saying no signal. At first, I
did the sysrq thing. Then it occurred to me that I should try CTRL ALT
F7 and see if the GUI is still running. It is. So, at least I can log
back in.
I've never ran into a situation where CTRL ALT F1 didn't give me a
console. I did check, agetty is running. I even did a pkill so it
would restart, still no console. I have no idea where to go from here.
In some 20 years of using Linux, I've never had a console not be there.
This started about two weeks ago. Maybe three. I suspect a update but
it could be that I either updated a config file or may have changed
something not meaning to.
Anyone have ideas on what to check to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Dale
