No. If you look near the end of /etc/inittab you should see lines for gettys. Assuming that they're there, you should get some output with $ ps -C getty If CTRL-ALT-F1 doesn't work, from what vt are you trying? If you are in X at the time, it could be that X is capturing keys. Try getting out of X (I don't know how you got into it; I always use startx) and see where you are. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
