The fact that Ctrl-Alt-F1 now brings up the login screen is documented: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtfulAardvark/ReleaseNotes#Ubuntu_Desktop
"GDM has replaced LightDM as the default display manager. The login screen now uses virtual terminal 1 instead of virtual terminal 7." (Ctrl-Alt-F1 switches to virtual terminal 1.) I've been looking for a way to switch back to having 6 text terminals but I haven't been successful. I've tried uncommenting "NAutoVTs=6" and "ReserveVT=6" in /etc/systemd/logind.conf but it had no effect. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725954 Title: It is hard and nonintuitive to switch to console ttys on Ubuntu 17.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/slick-greeter/+bug/1725954/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
