The kernel side of
virtual consoles just integrated, the X server changes required are still being worked on. A prototype is available from
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/ project/vconsole/
As root user or with enough privileges:
#svccfg -s vtdaemon setprop options/hotkeys=true
If you do not want the screen lock/unlock feature:
#svccfg -s vtaemon setprop options/secure=false
#svcadm enable vtdaemon
#svcadm enable console-login:vt2
#svcadm enable console-login:vt3
#svcadm enable console-login:vt4
#svcadm enable console-login:vt5
#svcadm enable console-login:vt6
If you are eager to switch between X sessions and console sessions, here is an experimental Xorg binary for you to try.
After you downloaded and uncompressed the binaries:
cd <$xorg-dir>/proto-packages/installdir/
run ./upgrade-X
It will upgrade your Xorg with VT support.
