(At least I think it was the Printscreen key he >used). On my machine, with 1.2.9 kernel, alt-printscreen toggles between two VCs and neither cntl-printscreen nor shift-printscreen seem to do anything. However, shift-scroll lock, cntl-scroll lock, and right alt-scroll lock dump some interesting things into /var/adm/messages. Also, I don't find documentation anywhere in the kernel source tree (i.e. searching for the strings "printscreen", "print screen", or "scroll lock"). - Jim Van Zandt
