Option "XkbDisable" "true"

exactly :) as per the other emails I refered, the issue is with Xkb extensions
when you have multiple / altnernative kb layouts

EndSection


at the end of my xorg.conf.
This has fixed the "ctl+alt+<Fn>" problem. There may be side
effects, but so far I haven't triggered any of them.


yes, you can't use alternative keyboard layouts and switch between them. there
is a proposed work around (also in the archives) ,but I haven't tested it yet.

FWIW, I never had to do this with older version of XF86, and even this
change applied to /usr/local/etc/X11/xorg.conf does not remedy the problem
for xorg 7.2 (which otherwise works fine). I wonder if there is more magic
here yet to be applied ...
