    Talking Yay!



    I just installed Debian for the first time in five years, very pleased (runs great!). The last time I did it was with 'woody'; and if I recall correctly I could press alt-F2-F12 to bring up additional terminal sessions. That worked under the command line in Sarge, but not in X11.

    Didn't that work in Woody, or am I imagining things? Is there a different key for accomplishing this under X11 in Sarge, or do I have to use the Xterm?

    Thanks,
    Daniel Demski
