This includes switching VTs upon Ctrl-ALt-Fx. OK, but what's puzzling is that there's no indication whatsoever that there's any broken Ctrl activity (neither in konsole nor in a tty), yet the tty gets switched readily as soon as only Alt-Fx gets pressed in X.org. IOW (unless that's wrong) you're saying that it's X.org which has a broken Ctrl key state (but solely when doing the Alt-Fx switch, _not_ when doing Ctrl-L or regular letter input), not the kernel. If so, would this problem warrant notifying X.org upstream, or is it likely to be fixed in newer X.org releases?
