&lt;div&gt;[[BIOS]] stands for Basic Input Output System.  x86 [[BIOS]] calls are single task calls.  The [[Linux]] operating system had to replace all of these calls with [[kernel]] drivers.  This is why you can use Alt and F1 to F6 on most [[Linux]] distributions. A new session will start because the [[kernel]] replace the single task [[BIOS]] calls with mult-task calls.  [[Linux]] can handle multiple keyboard, mice and video sessions.&lt;br /&gt;
