Bug Description
In current Jaunty, pressing Alt-Fn or Alt+Cursor left/right switches VTs. This is very inconvenient, since both are very common key combinations for GNOME and other X programs.
In earlier versions you had to use Ctrl+Alt+Fn for VT switching, and I think Ctlrl+Alt+Cursor did not work at all. This behaviour should be restored.

This is probably because evdev doesn't grab the devices sometimes. I saw it on statik's laptop at UDS, and applied the same workaround I used (turning on GrabDevice in a .fdi).
