my inittab does not list the ttys in runlevel 5 - but they are available.

Out of curiosity, what does your /etc/inittab look like after the "dpkg-reconfigure console-data" command has been run. Can you verify if it is making the change I suggested. I can verify that the default sarge install only sets up 1 tty for runlevel 5. I would just like to know if it is mod
i did an "apt-get distupgrade" and set some keyboard options (i'm using a
german keyboard) using "xmodmap" (which sounds as if it would only affect
X11, but i'm not sure) and did a "dpkg-reconfigure console-data", and my
problem is gone - i don't know which of the measures above solved it.

I think I just encountered your problem. In runlevel 5 the default is
to only allow getty to run for 1 tty. I guess they are assuming that if
you are running X you will not run multiple consoles. If you look at
the /etc/inittab file you will see something like this:

# Note that on most

thanks a lot - though i set my keymap to german during the installation,
dpkg-reconfigure console-data showed new settings that i had not seen before.
this did not solve the problem with the pipe/gt/lt-key, but
i can now switch ttys again - great!

hallo,
I had to run a "dpkg-reconfigure console-data" and then to chose the
correct keyboard layout. But in my case this was for swissgerman so I
don't know if this also works for you.

i don't think that xmodmap can solve my problem - when i run xev and press
the ALT, STRG or F(1-6) keys, the keyboard signals show up correctly -
this is what i would expect, as the keyboard works under X11.
it does however not work after switching to a text console.
thanks nevertheless,

I have a similar problem: Debian Sarge, after an upgrade I can't switch to
ttys from X, when its running gnome (metacity). But I can switch to the
ttys, when only gdm is running, or X starting up. But not after log in to
gnome. I don't know if its related, but can be...
