Hi ALL,

I have installed FC 4 with default. And try to use virtual console
(Crt+Alt+F1-F6).


I seem to recall something about the on-board Intel graphics chipsets
having issues with the initial kernel in FC4....I think :) if you update
your kernel(and possibly Xorg) the console comes back.

For one of many bug reports on the problem, see bug below. Upgrading xorg was the problem and the kernel was not involved with the failure directly. Though FC5 test kernels do strange things when multiple video cards are installed.
