Description of problem: Shortcuts for VT have changed from Ctrl+Alt+Fkey to Alt+Fkey. So, switching to VTs happens all the time. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [matias@r2d2 ~]$ rpm -qa | grep xorg-x11-server xorg-x11-server-common-1.5.2-5.fc10.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-utils-7.4-3.fc10.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.5.2-5.fc10.x86_64 running kde 4.1.2 from Live CD. How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Press Alt+F2 and get VT2 2. Press Alt+F1 and get blank screen from VT1 3. and so on Actual results: If I press Alt+F2 I go to VT2 and when come back to graphical mode krunner is on the screen. Expected results: Alt+F2 would give me krunner but i go directly to VT2 Additional info: just in case Linux r2d2 2.6.27.2-23.rc1.fc10.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Oct 16 23:42:46 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Also Alt-Left / Alt-Right / Ctrl-Alt-Left / Ctrl-Alt-Right under X are switching VT not workspace.
I'm raising to urgent cause if i press the 'two' key X is restarted! And I wrote 'two' instead of actually pressing 'two' cause X would be restarted.
If i press the 'r' key the third LED of my keyboard lights up (first comes numlok, than capslock, than the LED i'm talking about). If i press the 'w' or ''' key the LED is turned off. I have a Dell Vostro 1400 with an ABNT keyboard.
Without updating again the first problem disappeared. Don't know what happened.
I'm still seeing this problem in latest Rawhide. In fact, this is rather expected as: - usually, on TTY 7 (graphical), you have to use CTRL + ALT + Fx / arrow key / tab key to swith VTs - on text VTs, CTRL is not needed anymore - X is running on TTY 1 here ! Why did X was switched from TTY 7 to TTY 1 ? Can the shortcuts from TTY 7 be backported to TTY 1 ?
I saw the same thing on my machine with the following configuration Rawhide 9.92 X86_64 Graphics : 82G965 xorg-x11-server-utils-7.4-3.fc10.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-common-1.5.2-5.fc10.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.5.2-5.fc10.x86_64 plymouth-0.6.0-0.2008.10.17.1.fc10.x86_64 To fix the issue I created a *very* simple xorg.conf file (see below) If I startup without the xorg.conf file I get the odd keyboard mappings (ALT-F2) -> tty2, but if I have a xorg.conf present it's fine. Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "intel" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection
I have my suspicion, that this is actually duplicate of bug 467636
