Revive Dead Consoles after Suspend

Slug — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 19:48:25 -0400

Hello everyone. I'm using Slackware13.0 & I've encountered a rather perplexing situation. I was wondering if there where any fellow slackers or wizened gnu 'rus out there who could lend a hand.

While using the kde4 desktop environment, after using the suspend to ram feature, I cannot revive the other consoles? tty0-7, or the consoles you get when you ctrl+alt+fn". The only one I can revive is the one I last used; xwindows, or tty7.

If anyone could help point me in the right direction towards a resolution, I'd be most grateful!
