The command you want is "chvt". E.g... |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
chvt 1 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
...will change you over to text console 1, just like the {CTRL-ALT-F1} |
| 13 |
key combo. You may want to try "chvt 12" (equivalant to {CTRL-ALT-F12} |
| 14 |
if you want to see logging while the shutdown is in progress. I don't |
| 15 |
know what desktop or window manager you use, but if it has a shutdown |
| 16 |
script you can include "chvt 12" (without the quotes) in it. Another |
| 17 |
option is to put it in /etc/conf.d/local.stop but be careful when doing |
| 18 |
etc-update that it doesn't get overwritten by the default empty file. |
