Hi,
I hope this to be a bug and not a really bad joke. I am completely
unable to switch vt with current rawhide kernel
(2.6.27.4-65.fc10.x86_64) and it works with an older one
(2.6.27.3-27.rc1.fc10.x86_64), there is no reaction on pressing
Ctrl-Alt-F[1-6]
I have
- no graphical boot, console is vesafb
- default runlevel 5
- updated /etc/event.d/tty1 to be same as tty[2-6] as suggested by
wwoods (I want X on vt7)
- I am logged in GNOME
with last kernel from koji
[root@localhost ~]# ps ax | grep gdm
2596 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/gdm-binary -nodaemon
2657 ? S 0:00 /usr/libexec/gdm-simple-slave
--display-id /org/gnome/DisplayManager/Display1 --force-active-vt
2658 ? Ss 0:05 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -nr -verbose

vs. with older kernel

and no errors in Xorg.log
