If you are in an X session and you want to open or access another
virtual console (say, to login as another user), press Ctrl+Alt+F[1-6],
F[1-6] being any function key from F1 to F6. To return to your X
session, press Alt+F7.

There is a short and sweet explanation of virtual consoles in the "Linux
Installation and Getting Started" guide at the Linux Documentation
project:
