Hi, I'm not quite sure how to call this issue, maybe that's the reason, why I couldn't find anything on google nor in the bugtracker :(. I'm using the X server with GDM (Gnome), which is attached to Ctrl+Alt +F7 (btw: How do you call this?) during startup. Pretty normal. But as soon as I restart the X server (using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, but it doesn't matter) the X server gets attached to the next free "combo", which is quite obviously Ctrl+Alt+F8, whereas Ctrl+Alt+F7 shows just a blinking cursor. Interestingly this just happens once, so restarting the X server doesn't change anything, it stays attached to Ctrl+Alt+F8. I guess this could be known by some of you, I've experienced this on different machines already, but due to the fact that I don't know how to call this issue, I couldn't find any work-around. So, first of all I would like to know, whether you can reproduce this? Secondly I would like to know where the consoles are set up, so I can set up a seventh console, so the X server will get started on Ctrl+Alt +F8 in the first place. This has a different reason. My F8 key has a LCD printed on it (as it is also a function key to switch the output between the LCD and an attached monitor), so this would be a cool thing ;). But I don't know whether this would fix my main issue, or if the X server would then be shifted to Ctrl+Alt+F9. -- Best regards, Karol Babioch <karol@xxxxxxxxxx>
