The fact that Ctrl-Alt-F1 now brings up the login screen is documented: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtfulAardvark/ReleaseNotes#Ubuntu_Desktop

"GDM has replaced LightDM as the default display manager. The login screen now uses virtual terminal 1 instead of virtual terminal 7."

(Ctrl-Alt-F1 switches to virtual terminal 1.)

I've been looking for a way to switch back to having 6 text terminals but I haven't been successful. I've tried uncommenting "NAutoVTs=6" and "ReserveVT=6" in /etc/systemd/logind.conf but it had no effect.
