First of all, you should start a new thread when you have a new
question.  I'm probably being a hypocrite, just because I don't know
how to break/change the thread-ID in Thunderbird without creating an
entirely new mail.  But, it's not proper "net-iquette" to reply to
someone else's message with a /completely/ new topic without creating
a new thread.

That being said, if you're saying what I think you're saying, I
haven't been able to switch terminals as you suggest once X and a
window manager (like KDE or Gnome) is up and running.  Don't know if
it's because of X, or KDE, or GDM, or whatever.  But, you're not
alone.  ;-)  It's not a problem for me, I usually have about 5-10
different terminal sessions going at any given time, they just happen
to be managed by KDE.  I manually start gdm when I want to go into a
GUI session, and everything works fine as far as CTRL+ALT+F[123456789]
before I start the X session.
