Finally after many years of absence I change from Debian /Ubuntu back to what is "now" opensuse (it was really a long time ago :) ) and let me just say that I am very impressed and satisfied with the overall experience and appearance of opensuse.
welcome back.
Thanks :)
But I have an issue with switching back from a tty session to the x11 session via CTRL-ALT-F7 key kombination. Switching from the x11 sessions to one of the ttys works fine. So I was wondering whether this is a known issue (I did not find anything similar in bugzilla)? And how could I easily access the keyboard mapping within the tty, just to quickly check if the keymap in the tty is the same as in the x11 session.
It is possible that you X11 session is not on tty7; try<ctrl><alt><f8> or <ctrl><alt><f9>.
Oh, I was a bit "overprecise" I meant to say that the "ALT-CTRL-F<1-8>" key combination does not work at all,
Then there is no way to get to a tty session as <CTRL><ALT>F[1-6] key combo is the only way to go from an "X11" session to a tty session. Or are you perhaps using VirtualBox and having the problem?
so I cannot switch between tty, nothing happens when I use it.
So my suspicion is that for some reasons the keyboard layout changes when I switch from an x11 session to a tty since at least I can change *from* the KDE sessions to the tty, but back to or between the the tty. But I have actually no clue what is going on and that's just a blind guess. Any hints are welcome!
Cheers, Andre
