Hello, I like to hook up this eMail again. I still have problems with this 
issue and F1...F12 - Shift+F1...Shift+F4 works perfectly but after that not. 
Ok this is Linux console related. Could you please go a bit deeper into this 
please and may give me a hint where I should look for this ?

- Is it Getty related ?
- Is it Console-Tools related ?
- Is it Linux Kernel related ? OR
- Is it Ncurses related ?

I don't use a common Distribution so please don't ask for that but just for 
knowledge increasing an answer would be helpful. Maybe I can share it one day 
with someone else who needs it.
