@Carl Mueller I ran into the same problem yesterday with my fresh Ubuntu Gnome 16.10 on my HP EliteBook 840 G4. Alt + F1-F6 switched virtual terminals and Ctrl + Alt + F1-F6 did nothing. And strangely Gnome was running on tty1. A
#sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup helped me out. I set "UTF-8" and "Latin2". Now everything is working fine. Just Gnome is still running on tty1. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to console-setup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/520546 Title: Alt-f2 switches to virtual terminal 2 Status in console-cyrillic package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm running Ubuntu Lucid development branch. Pressing alt-f2 switches the screen to the second virtual terminal. Alt-f3 does the same to the third and so on. I expected alt-f2 to open the run dialog. I'm pretty sure that my keyboard is not malfunctioning as I can use all my applications normally. (Pressing O and Ctrl-O do not have the same effect.) I'm not sure which package I should file this bug against. I'll happily do an apport-collect once I know.
