hi every body

I have recently install on hard disk knopixx 3.2
I worked fine, but the changing to other screen ( screen text F1 to F6) does not work, and the computer
stops working ( nothing works you have to get down th PC)


the getty program is running
ps aux gives for example
root 299 0.0 0.3 1480 400 tty3 S Feb25 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty3


thank you for help

Do you have
ps aux
root 350 0.0 0.1 1252 468 tty1 S 08:02 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty1
root 351 0.0 0.1 1252 468 tty2 S 08:02 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty2
root 352 0.0 0.1 1252 468 tty3 S 08:02 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty3
root 353 0.0 0.1 1252 468 tty4 S 08:02 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty4
root 354 0.0 0.1 1252 468 tty5 S 08:02 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty5
root 355 0.0 0.1 1252 468 tty6 S 08:02 0:00 /sbin/getty 38400 tty6

this is what I said

the getty works for the different tty

bye

I am having the same problem. CTRL ALT F1 to F6 results in a Black Screen. CTRL ALT F7 goes back to the GUI desktop. I installed Fedora Core 4 on a Intel P4 mother board model D865GEF. Core 4 works fine on a P3 Intel board. I performed the above mentioned Grep command an all is ok there.
1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3
4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4
5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5
6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6

I think the problem is with on on-board video, it is not changing from X back to text mode for the terminal.
