Great work, Florian! I always find it fascinating when I get a glimpse

Well, would you believe it - that fixed the problem!
I still can't quite believe it was as simple as that.
Thanks a lot for your help :-)

Check what is assigned to keycode 67. I see this:

If your output looks different then you can try if
xmodmap -e 'keycode 67 = F1 XF86_Switch_VT_1'
restores the VT switching.

I warn you again though, this is not a good idea. You'd be better off
downloading the tarball from the developers' web site and compiling it
that you would by trying to use apt to pull in a package from sarge.
The packages there are old, and have very different dependencies.
