Linux Tutorial for Beginners Part - 4| Virtual Terminal
Linux virtual consoles are a feature of Linux that allows you to access multiple shell sessions from the same physical machine, without using a graphical interface. They are useful for troubleshooting, system administration, or running text-based applications. You can switch between different virtual consoles by pressing Ctrl + Alt + F1 to F6, where F1 to F6 are the function keys on your keyboard. Each virtual console has its own login prompt and shell session. You can also use the mouse and touchpad in some virtual consoles, if you install the gpm driver1.
Some of the benefits of using Linux virtual consoles are:
You can run commands in a non-graphical environment, which may be faster or more stable than a graphical one.
You can access the system even if the graphical interface fails or freezes.
You can run multiple tasks in parallel, without opening multiple terminal windows or tabs.
You can learn more about the Linux system and its commands, as well as practice your typing skills.
