 Hi Uwe, 
  
 just tried. 
  
 - Ctrl+Alt+F1...F4 
  
   does not change the (stuck) screen in any way. It stays the same as in 
 the last photo 
   (as a matter of fact the PC has been up since I took that photo). 
  
 - systemctl start getty@tty4.service 
  
   Before trying this command, I checked: 
  
   # systemctl list-units | grep getty 
   getty@tty1.service     loaded active running   Getty on tty1 
   getty@tty4.service     loaded active running   Getty on tty4 
   system-getty.slice     loaded active active    Slice /system/getty 
   getty.target 
  
   (some spaces removed by me) 
  
   After executing the command, the screen still didn't change. Not even 
 after 
   trying with "restart" instead of "start". 
  
 Thanks, Bye, 
 Chris.
