Ctrl-Alt-F7 (and Ctrl-Alt-F8, if you had more than one X11 session

another one, try them all.  Ctrl-Alt-F1 (and neighbors) is where the
text-based ttys live.  They work without X11.

Ctrl-Alt-F7 doesn't do anything, nor does Ctrl-Alt-F1 through F6.

Ctrl-Alt-F8 makes both screens go to black. Ctrl-Alt-F7 returns the screens to what they were before.

I remember years ago using Ctrl-Alt-F1 through F6 before to get a command prompt screen, which I would leave via Ctrl-Alt-F7. I don't recall getting this one before, though.
