Xen users - Oct 2006 - xenconsole: How to get out?

Hi,

XEN has a console that works in text mode ("xm console", e.g. via
SSH). However
with a German keyboard I''m having trouble to get out of the console
again. Usually
I login to Dom0 from another terminal, and then kill the xenconsole process.
However I''d wish there was an easier way to get out. Maybe add a
configurable
escape key like for SSH?

Regards,
Ulrich

It''s Ctrl + ] (closing square braket). In Spanish you have to actually 
hit three keys: Ctrl, then AltGr, then + (plus sign).

I hope this helps.

Hello Ulrich,

 Did you try   "CTRL+5" or "CTRL+[" do log-out ?

 Thanks,

 Johan

Same with a Danish keyboard.
CTRL + ] is simply a horrible choice which should be changed ASAP.

Yeah, me too.

Or just change it to triple-CTRL+A or something internationally sane
to begin with.

Maybe I''m biased as I can''t understand how anyone is able to
code on a
local keyboard (at last for German) but anyway.

What is the problem with simply adding US as an additional keyboard
layout and switch to it, if ctr-[ is to awkward on your local keyboard.
(the real important keys like <{[/|\]}> are better reacheable this way,
too).
