Hi,
I got a strange problem: >From X11 I can switch to text console via CTRL-ALT-F(x). >From the text console I can switch to other text console via ALT-F(x). But once touching the console, where X11 should still be running and which is now occupied by the deep dark unholy "nothing" ;) I got trapped -- no way out and a bindly keyed login followed by a reboot has nothing as result. My /etc/inittab looks like: # new-style single-user su0:S:wait:/sbin/rc single su1:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin # TERMINALS c1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty1 linux c2:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty2 linux c3:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty3 linux c4:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty4 linux c5:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty5 linux c6:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 38400 tty6 linux # SERIAL CONSOLES #s0:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 115200 ttyS0 vt100 #s1:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 115200 ttyS1 vt100 # What to do at the "Three Finger Salute". ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -r now # Used by /etc/init.d/xdm to control DM startup. # Read the comments in /etc/init.d/xdm for more # info. Do NOT remove, as this will start nothing # extra at boot if /etc/init.d/xdm is not added # to the "default" runlevel. x:a:once:/etc/X11/startDM.sh <unrelated stuff removed> >From searching the web I found questions, from people, which cannot switch to anything from X11...but I can. That is another problem. And a lot question are regarding the correct key-combo. This has worked for years and didn't changed anything from which I think it could be related. How can I fix this? Thank you very much in advance for any help! Best regards, mcc
