Ctrl-Alt-F1 from KDE on my ACER Aspire 1353LM makes the screen go completely blank. I'm able to blindly log in / off the text console and to go back to KDE with Alt-F7. Any idea on what to try to get a proper text console?
interrupt the boot command the same as you would to init 3 or xx and edit the vga=xxxxx entry to vga=normal or 'ask' or 'scan'. The system is apparently trying to boot with screen parameters that your monitor cannot use. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711
