[SuSE Linux] SuSE 5.3 ate my termials option, or did it?
With SuSE 5.2 I could (from within KDE) press ALT-F2, ALT-F3, etc.., and jump from KDE to a new command line terminal for each ALT-F_. ALT-F7 then took me back to KDE. I just did a fresh install of SuSE 5.3 (from one of the $1.99 flavor single CD cheepo editions), and when I press ALT-F_ nothing happens, and I remain in KDE. Did I goof up, or is this my punishment for not purchasing the full SuSE release of version 5.3? This hurts a lot!!! ------------------------------------------ Man's mind is his basic tool of survival!

Why don't you try CTRL-ALT-FX X=1,2,3,4,5 from within KDE ? Hope it helps. ______________________________________________________________________ Jose Luis Garcia Nutec Premier, S.A. de C.V. Ramos Arizpe , Coah. Mexico npremier@mcsa.net.mx On Sun, 27 Dec 1998, Lawrence Sayre wrote:
