4. Switching Consoles

XFree86 uses similar console switching keys as the SCO R4 and R5 servers. That is, Ctrl-PrntScr takes you to the next console along from the one X is running on. If this is the last console it will take you to console 1. Ctrl-Alt-FXX, where XX is a function key between F1 and F12 will switch you to the console number assigned to that function key. F1 corresponds to tty01 (or console 1), F2 corresponds to tty02 (or console 2) etc. Those interested in modifying the console switching should look in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86Events.c.
