Re: Changing tty shells

Hi Debian Users List,
My computer is set to boot into a tty shell. I manually enter X Server
by issuing the startx command. Previously, I had been able to switch
tty shells with the keystroke combination Alt + F[1-6]. After
attempting to reconfigure they keyboard and locales to solve an
unrelated problem, suddenly this no longer works.
I can still change shells from within X Server by using the
combination Ctrl + Alt + F[1-6], but I don't want to have to log into
X Server in order to be able to use all of my tty shells. What could
have gone wrong, and where do I look to fix the problem?
Thanks,
Levi
On my box, Alt + F[1-6] does not work in the console either, but Ctrl +
Alt + F[1-6] works fine from the console, just as it does from X.
