Yes. I also hoped that some device would be modified when switching
to a virtual terminal (so that I could use inotify), but this isn't
the case.

Now, since in practice I switch to a console with the keyboard,
perhaps I could handle the XF86_Switch_VT_* with my window manager
(possible after changing the keysyms with xmodmap if they are in
the way). The script would execute "setupcon --force" just after
chvt.

The above option doesn't have any effect, and I haven't found anything
on Google.
