This is not complete. After initial testing it looks like *switching the vt consoles* does not work. Neither LeftAlt + arrows nor LeftAlt + Fx keys, both combination spew garbage on the screen. The combinations seem to have changaed to Ctrl+Logo+Right/Left and Ctrl+LeftAlt+Fx. Please document this clearly in Release Notes. -- Tomasz Torcz Morality must always be based on practicality.
