Thank you very much,I just editted it and now I can go from tty1->tty11, and I have tty12 on xwindows

is there any way I can go HIGHER?

Yes. Add the line

13:123:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty13

to your /etc/inittab (don't forget the "init q" afterwards) and you can switch to the 13th tty with <right-alt><F1>. I think this gives the idea.

I think you can go pretty high (up to 64, check devices.txt) using additional modifiers. If you do so, please remember to add more nodes to /dev (currently there are only 24 tty devices). Also, check your /etc/syslogd.conf for a tty to log to. -o) Hubert /\\ _\_v
