Is there any way to treat X session as if it were just another console session as far as console switching keys are concerned?
For example one can cycle through all terminals using Alt-RightArrow. However once one reaches X11 session it starts responding to the keys differently annoyingly breaking the cycle - forcing you to release the keys first and press Ctrl-Alt-Fn only to go to a specific terminal. Also, as soon as you reach X11 session in this sequence, it X server starts interpreting the key you pressed to reach here. For example if you reached here by Ctrl-Alt-F7, a moment of delay in releasing the key and X will start sending F7 keystroke to the application that got focused. I read about ways to skip X11 from this sequence. But I need X as I need to switch back and forth between some console and X applications. Just want it to respond the same way terminals do as far as switching is concerned. Any layer where X servers reserved keystrokes can be overridden etc.? Thanks Mayuresh. A related question: I can avoid this problem altogether by not starting X at all if I have a framebuffer client for a specific application I want to use. I am looking for a dvi viewer that works with framebuffer. Read about dvifb. Not available on Fedora. Did not succeed in compiling it either. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
