In 4.3.0 days I made a change to the native keyboard driver that would differentiate between Alt+Ctrl+SPECIAL and Alt+Ctrl+Shift+SPECIAL, where SPECIAL is one of the VT screen switch, zap, or mode change keys. I submitted a small patch (Bugzilla #1298) that cathes a new case where this was being missed, but that code is only ever used if XKB is disabled. When using XKB mode, the problem still exists (that is, holding down shift while using one of the special key sequences still acts on that sequence).

I am XKB-impaired, and don't know if this is a problem in the keyboard definition or in XKB itself. I have several applications that want to use Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Fx, and the only way I can currently do that is to disable XKB. Can anyone who 'gets' XKB take a look at this? Many thanks in advance.

PS I filed this as bug #1297.
