Oh, and I forgot to tell you: ctr-alt-F2 goes to console of screen 1 ctr-alt-F8 goes to X environment of screen 1 ctr-alt-F3 goes to console of screen 2 ctr-alt-F9 goes to X environment of screen 2 ctr-alt-F4 goes to console of screen 3 ctr-alt-F10 goes to X environment of screen 3 ctr-alt-F1 goes to console of screen 0 ctr-alt-F7 goes to X environment of screen 0 and so on... I believe you have up to four screen possible. Then of course there's vnc. But that's a whole other topic.
