Hello Everyone, I hit "Ctrl | Alt | F2" to get to a non-graphical console. For a long time now, pressing "Alt | F1" would bring me back to the graphical environment. Since I fedup'd to Fedora 20, lots of times (maybe not always) when I press "Alt | F1" instead of being taken back to graphical mode, I am taken to a blue screen with the Fedora logo in the center. I have not been able to figure out how to get that screen to go away. There is no discernible way to interact with this screen. I've tried typing, the esc key, dragging with my mouse, even pressing "Ctrl | Alt | F2" to get me back to a non-graphical console. None of this works, and I have to reboot.
I have never seen this behavior until Fedora 20.

Have you not tried other virtual terminals? CTRL+ALT+F3 etc (F1 through to F7).
