Newbie Tips: Will, you asked.....



-- 
DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #25 from Will Trillich
<will@serensoft.com> 
:
Did you know you have MORE THAN ONE CONSOLE to use?
There's six,
by default: try Control-Alt-F6 to see console six,
Ctl-Alt-F3 for
console 3, and so forth. (If you don't use the X
window display
system, you don't need to include the control key.)
Each console
can have its own login, running its own jobs. Very
handy!

Also see http://newbieDoc.sourceForge.net/ ...

This might be more correct by saying

...try Alt-F6..... (If you are coming from the X GUI
display use Control-Alt-F3 to get to console 3. To
switch to the GUI environment use Control-Alt-F7)

Nitpicking and the fact the X needs to be running
should be mentioned, and maybe that makes it a little
too long for a Tip, but I just wanted you to know that
they are being read.
