>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE
>Environment:

	Regular text mode console with mutliple virtual screens
	on 2.2.6 system

>Description:

	If running on an alternative console tty (/dev/ttyv[1-9])
	and a shutdown command is issued, access to the current 
	tty is terminated but no the primary console screen is not
	restored.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Press ALT-F2 on the console and then shutdown the system.

>Fix:

	I would suggest the correct behavior is as the system shuts
	down, that an implicit switch be made to the primary console
	screen (/dev/ttyv0).

	The workaround, of course, is to remember to switch before 
	shutting down.
