Do you mean from a terminal to X11 (Alt+F7 does that), or between virtual desktops (in KDE, it's Ctrl+F1, Ctrl+F2 etc. - I don't use GNOME, but it's probably the same (check in the Control Panel)) BTW, if it's the first one, remember that to get back to the terminal, you need to use /Ctrl/+Alt+F1 etc. Hope this helps -- Paul Nolan Veni veni venias - ne me mori facias! .
