Works fine here. There would be a huge riot on the lists and forums if
this was broken for everyone; I conclude that it isn't.

Note that X runs on tty1 in most Fedora configs, so ctrl-alt-f1 from the
graphical desktop will do nothing, because you're trying to switch to
the tty you're on. X-on-tty7 was the historical 'standard' and you may
still be expecting that, I guess, but it changed on Fedora several
releases ago.
