you mean the one that comes on the woody (or sarge) ISO? (we
experienced plenty of trouble with both of those) or is this
something else? if so, sounds interesting... :)

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. If you do have X running, you can return to it from any
console via Alt-F7, unless you've changed the defaults.) Each
console can have its own login, running its own jobs. Very
handy!
