Hi Jens,
Like on intel:
When X is not active one uses <ALT> and <Fx>
In case X is started up you uses <CTRL><ALT><Fx>
If you have "login" on 6 virtual terminals active X will use the first free
virtual terminal.
This amount is defined in /etc/inittab (lines 47..53) You can increase or
decrease the number.
When you want to use X, do not start more than 11 Virtual Terminals, as your
keyboard is limited to F12 ;-))
Only pitfall is that in contrast to intel machines you can have on sun ONLY
one X session active.
