I am now at 8.04 with kernel 2.6.24-19 and have not experienced the
problem. Having said that -- I have not had the series of multi-console
tasks to repeat recently. If the tasks had impact on the switching
behavior then I have not tested for your question.
I do notice that BOTH alt-ctrl-Fx and alt-Fx cause the switching on my
system -- I believe this violates the documentation on the subject? To
be complete in my description: alt-Fx causes switching between ASCII
consoles and "TO" the GUI on F7, but does not cause a switch "FROM" the
GUI to the ASCII consoles. Therefore the alt-Fx switch is not universal
in behavior as is the alt-ctrl-Fx keystroke.
I'd be happy to perform specific tests if it will help this cause.
Thanks for being there and involved in advancing the port.
Hi Sebastian.
