I want to file a bug report on Launchpad about a problem with me not being able to switch to console view from the GUI loading screen on start up. When I try to toggle, the console view has been replaced by a black screen, although it is normally fine on shut down. And this only started to occur when I upgraded from Ubuntu 14.04 to 14.10.
But I have got a slight problem at the moment, I don't know which package to report it under... So I was hoping that someone here could help with that.
As stated before, I am currently running Ubuntu 14.10. The output for the command lspci
is:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family DRAM Controller (rev 09)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)

And using the command Ctrl+Alt+F1 I am able to switch to the console view successfully while I am logged in, and also able to switch back with Ctrl+Alt+F7. So which package should I report it under?
The output of cat /etc/init/tty1.conf
is:
# tty1 - getty
#
# This service maintains a getty on tty1 from the point the system is
# started until it is shut down again.
start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345] and (
not-container or
container CONTAINER=lxc or
container CONTAINER=lxc-libvirt)
stop on runlevel [!2345]
respawn
exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 tty1
Please let me know if you require any more information to answer my question about which package on Launchpad I should report this under and I will edit my question to include that information.
getty
oragetty
) hasn't started. Does this happen for all the TTYs? Does the console show up later on?cat /etc/init/tty1.conf
?
