Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers How to switch between terminal screens in Sun Solaris 10 Post 96076 by rhfrommn on Tuesday 17th of January 2006 11:07:01 AM

The ctrl-alt-f1 trick is a linux only thing. Solaris doesn't have separate terminal screens like that. You can open terminals in CDE by right clicking your desktop and choosing tools|terminal, but they open in a separate window in CDE, not as a full screen like the virtual terminals in Linux do.
