running the knoppix versions I have from cd (which I admit are old):DO NOT tell people to hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 again!
I could not get back to the GUI after that, and I had to finally shut down manually by doing the shutdown -r now thing.
F1-F4, Alt-F5 (or F7) would not work.
[ctrl]-[alt]-[f1] thru [ctrl]-[alt]-[f4] are root consoles
and
[ctrl]-[alt]-[f5] returns you to your X session
after an hd install the X session is returned to 'normal' and is at [ctrl]-[alt]-[f7]

--Hey pal, just because YOU couldn't figure out how to get back into the GUI doesn't mean it won't work for other people.
--If you use Alt-RightArrow or Alt-LeftArrow it scrolls thru all the available VTs. Figure out how Linux works a bit more before you try telling your grandpa how to skin a cat; I've been using various flavors of Linux since ~1996-97.
totally agreed. newbies shouldn't generalize when THEY can't do it. Linux != Windows. You can ALLWAYS get acces to your system in some way or another. Thats the cool thing.
