I just installed FreeBSD 2.2.1 with no problems except that after I boot up I can only access one virtual terminal. If I press Alt-F2 or Alt-F3, the control character arn't "caught" by the OS and get passed to the shell which just spits back a message saying command not found. I don't have this problem with my other FreeBSD machine with the same version of the OS. I don't think its a keyboard problem because I also have Win95 on the same machine and Alt keys seem to work fine. Any ideas what the problem could be?
