Public bug reported:
As of today's 18.04 version, on a dell xps-13 (the old i7-4500U one), to
reproduce:
- boot Ubuntu
- Press Ctrl+Alt+F2 (or F3 or...)
Expected behaviour: virtual console should appear with login prompt.
Actual behaviour: nothing happens.
When a user is logged in, Ctrl+Alt+F3 switches to terminal tty3...
However, hitting first Ctrl+Alt+F1 and, subsequently, hitting
Ctrl+Alt+F3 does not show tty3, and remains at the graphical login
screen but keyboard and mouse are unresponsive until either Ctrl+Alt+F1
or Ctrl+Alt+F? are pressed, being ? the virtual terminal the ubuntu
session is running at.
