I am sorry that I caused offence. That was not my intent. I apologise. My questions *were* genuine. Ctrl-Alt-F[1-7] are standard Linux keystrokes across all distros, even if they do not have a GUI. I was thus surprised when you said that you had tried to Google for more info and not found anything, because this is a universal feature. I don't know what you Googled for. If you can remember, it would be informative, because this information _should_ have shown up, very high on the list. I really do not wish to add any additional hard feelings, but if I might be forgiven, I wish to point out that standard mailing-list style is that replies should go _below_ the text one is responding to, and that one should trim the quoted text to the part that one is addressing. This is especially important for those who only subscribe to the digest. -- Liam Proven - Profile: https://about.me/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk - Google Mail/Hangouts/Plus: lpro...@gmail.com Twitter/Facebook/Flickr: lproven - Skype/LinkedIn: liamproven UK: +44 7939-087884 - ČR (+ WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal): +420 702 829 053 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
