Description Per Jessen 2005-09-19 06:47:47 UTC

When in window mode with KDE, I cannot swap to textmode using e.g. Ctrl-Alt-F1.

Comment 1 Dirk Mueller 2005-09-19 11:22:09 UTC

what is window mode?

Comment 2 Per Jessen 2005-09-19 11:58:55 UTC

Just normal KDE in pseudo terminal 7.

Comment 3 Dirk Mueller 2005-09-19 14:00:33 UTC

can't reproduce.. do you use the nvidia binary drivers? I remember they block  
this somehow.   
  
anyway, this is more a x server issue, not something KDE  influences, CC'ing 
egbert. couldn't find out Matthias Hopf's bugzilla account.

Comment 4 Per Jessen 2005-09-19 14:20:45 UTC

The graphics card is an on-board ATI Radeon 9100 IGP.  I'll check the behaviour
in a different system too.  Update to follow.

Comment 5 Per Jessen 2005-09-19 15:55:26 UTC

Tried another box with an ATI 3D Rage Pro - Ctrl-Alt-Fx works fine here.  The
failing system is an ASUS Pundit-R with the ATIIXP chipset.

Comment 6 Stephan Kulow 2005-09-26 08:33:48 UTC

and you sure didn't disable that in Xorg.conf?

Comment 7 Per Jessen 2005-09-26 08:50:00 UTC

Nope, I haven't touched Xorg.conf.  To be honest, I wouldn't know how.

Comment 8 Per Jessen 2005-09-26 08:59:01 UTC

Uh, I have just now tried that system again - no problem any more.  Apologies, I
don't know why or how it has disappeared.

Comment 9 Stefan Dirsch 2005-09-26 09:58:19 UTC

Closing as WORKSFORME therefore.
