[gentoo-user] xorg-server-7.0.0-rc1: Cannot switch to VC's
I just upgraded to xorg-server-7.0.0-rc1, and I can now no longer switch to VC's. I used to be able to do this by holding ctl-alt and pressing F1, for example. Does anyone out there happen to know how I can once again do this? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I used to be able to do this by holding ctl-alt and pressing F1, for example. Does anyone out there happen to know how I can once again do this? From the xorg.conf man page: Option DontVTSwitch boolean This disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Fn sequence (where Fn refers to one of the numbered function keys). That sequence is normally used to switch to another virtual terminal on operating systems that have this feature. When this option is enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed to clients. Default: off. Sounds like you have DontVTSwitch in your xorg.conf. If not, maybe you could post your xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
