Didn't work in 2.6.31-9, still doesn't work in 2.6.31-10. Ctrl+Alt+F1/F7 does work, though.

I use Karmic Koala and after the kernel update to 201002-5346 2.6.31-19-generic #56 the the Test to switch to another virtual terminal and then back to X doesn't work anymore. Instead of the virtual terminal I got some weird colours and then back to X.
