Re: Since chvt works, the problem must be the keymap



Since chvt works, is there any way to make chvt a command
that is accessible by a normal user such as myself so that I
could bind it to a key with xbindkeys (for those of you just
tuning in, I can't seem to switch to a VT from X with the
standard Control-Alt-<Fx> keybindings), but can using chvt
as root or with sudo. It doesn't seem to be a file
permissions problem, as I can *invoke* chvt as a normal user
but get the error "VT_ACTIVATE: Operation not permitted"
when I do so.

Any answers are much appreciated.

Amy
