linux virtual terminals (ALT+F2 etc.) through conserver.

Hi folks,
With a screen and keyboard you can access the virtual terminals on a linux
box by pressing ALT+F2 etc.
I'm assuming that this functionality is availble though the serial console
also (perhaps a flawed assumption, I dont understand how or if linux maps
tty[0-9] to the serial console.)
Assuming it is, does anyone know how to send ALT+F2 through conserver? Just
pressing ALT+F2 unsurprisingly usualy causes something on my desktop to
change, and I have tried adding various break sequences of (im still on
conserver 7):
BREAK5=\00\151
BREAK6=\33\151
but this does not work.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
~Al
