Re: Need help

I am also using CentOS, but to get a bug fixed, you have to go upstream to RedHat.   I think John Pierce is right, I had to change my run level to get the alternate consoles to work.  I still have the machine at run level 3 hoping that a bug fix lets me go back to run level 5.   Other machines work fine, just the 2 with the MACH64 video on the motherboard will no longer run X.

I did try other console  and it did not work.
I did go from 6.7 to 6.8 but with centos not redhat.
