tuning in, I can't seem to switch to a VT from X with the
standard Control-Alt-<Fx> keybindings), but can using chvt
as root or with sudo. It doesn't seem to be a file
permissions problem, as I can *invoke* chvt as a normal user
but get the error "VT_ACTIVATE: Operation not permitted"
when I do so.

Amy, I was helping you with this and then got distracted. Did you
resolve this issue at all?
