Sorry if this is not the correct terminology, but oh well.

I am running ubuntu 9.10 karmic kola x32, 2.6.31-15-generic

with both gnome and kdesktop packages installed. When kdm is set to default (to give me a shutdown option in kde :( ), I am unable to use the ctrl-alt-fkeys to get to a real terminal. combinations f1 to f3+, except f7 which gets me back to x, give me a blank screen with a blinking curser.

The operation of the real terminals works as expected with gdm as default.

Thanks
