    CTRL+ALT+F? problem with Xorg and Virtual Terminal



    Hello,
    I have Xorg (11R6.8.1) installed with XFCE in the latest arch linux (0.7).

    As long as I am in console I am able to switch between all the virtual
    consoles. Once I start X, I am being blocked from switching to virtual
    terminals unless I kill X.

    CTRL+ALT+F? key doesn't work from X?

    How could I fix this problem?
    Any help would be appreciated very much...

    Good news...Problem Solved...

    In /etc/X11/xorg.conf, under keyboard section, there is an option for XkbVariant.

    Commenting this line out worked out fine...

    I hope this info is helpful to some body...who is also facing the similar problem...
