3.5.2 Consoles
eLux NG provides access to virtual consoles, which allow you to have more than one logon
session at a time:
• Console 1: eLux NG desktop
This is the console you see when you boot the terminal. Here is where the user runs
terminal server sessions, SAP sessions, local browser sessions, configures the eLux NG
starter, etc. You can have multiple windows and multiple workspaces open. This is the
default console.
• Console 2: First XDMCP session
The first XDMCP session, if one is running.
• Console 3: Second XDMCP session
The second XDMCP session, if one is running.
• Console 4: Message console
A text console that displays kernel messages and scripts. Useful for troubleshooting.
Up to two XDM sessions at a time are possible. By default, an XDMCP session runs in a
separate console. However, you can configure XDMCP sessions to run as a normal window in
console 1. For information on configuring XDMCP sessions, see “
4.7.5 XDMCP.”
To switch consoles, press the appropriate hotkey. A list is provided in
Figure 24. These
hotkeys can be deactivated, restricting the user to the eLux NG desktop (console 1). See “
3.5
Mouse / Keyboard.”
