Package: xkb-data
Version: 1.0~cvs.20070916-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

when I recently switched the x keyboard config from layout=de to
layout=us, this broke <Ctrl>+<F1>, ... i.e. switching to the ttys which
didn't react at all. I checked a bit further and found this to be caused
by the 
    Option          "XkbVariant"    "nodeadkeys"
which was left from the previous config. After removing this, switching
to the ttys worked again.

Actually, there's no "nodeadkeys" variant for the us layout, so I guess
xkb initialization failed, which explains the non-working vt switch
sequences.  Closing as user error.
