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
