Hi there,

a weird thing just happened to my Ubuntu Linux box. The Ctrl-Alt-F1 to
F6 key combo no longer takes me to another virtual terminal. It just
sits there... It's as if I had no more terminals started but I haven't
changed anything.

I checked that there are no keyboard shortcuts overiding the
combination but then, I'm out of ideas. There used to be a /etc/ttys
file on other linux distros but not on Ubuntu.

Any ideas? Many thanks.
