lubuntu 11.04 - ctr+alt+F1...4 - don't work

[marmarc]

I'm new user of lubuntu. I think it's exactly what I want all my life, but I've one problem.
When I try to login without XWindow - use alt+ctr+F1...4 - I only see blinking cursor and I can't type.
does this function work in lubuntu?

I just tried it on my Lu 11.04 desktop and they work. Are you running on a desktop or laptop?

Hello and Welcome to LXDE Forum ... also, thank you for using and choosing Lubuntu it's such a great OS indeed.

If I understood your post correctly, you are trying to login to CLI instead of GUI and in order to do that, you need to press Alt+Ctrl+F2 and t go back, you need to press Alt+Ctrl+F7 and it should work whether you are using Lubuntu or Ubuntu.

I have the exact same graphics card and I can confirm that the Ctrl-Alt-F1/2/3/ console doesn't work. I do not get to a tty login, I get the default resolution (i.e blocky) and a rapidly blinking prompt. However, I can confirm that on other *buntus this has worked. I'll file a bug.
