What do each of the TTYs do?
- by david25
I know that alt+ctrl+F(1-6) take me to available command lines, and that F1 command line is used for debugging, and F8 is the GUI desktop, that what i know but today i noticed there in F7 that does nothing, it only displays some sort of log in message, and there is F(9-12) that just display black screen with blinking under scroll .
can anyone enlighten me what those consoles do, are they for trouble shooting maybe?
i use ubuntu netbook 10.10.
