Now, Crl-Alt-F[2345...] work as before. Also, earlier, an OP had suggested I remove the nomodeset, because I was experiencing great delays in workspace switching. Well, removing nomodeset did fix that problem but introduced the problem with Ctrl-AltF[123456...] functionality. This time around, re-introducing nomodeset fixed (or restored) 3 functionalities I wanted: 1. I can see all the boot activity all the way to when gnome starts. 2. Ctrl-Alt-F... works 3. Workspace switch is now snappy again. I think this sort of ill explained bhavior of the desktop tells me that no one really know what's causing what, and why (i.e. no details). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
