Start up xev, switch to text console and then back to X (don't release the CTRL+ALT+Fx combo). Let X switch fully and then release the combo. Observe the 2 events reported by xev for Fx key. You may try running evtest in other window and observe that there are no down events at the time of 2 xev events, only autorepeats and release event (and autorepeats are ignored by X who does it's own software autorepeat). -- Dmitry -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
