Weird.  That's supposed to be the default.  There might be a bug in the
'no xorg.conf' case, though, and there's a good chance it'll be fixed
with xserver 1.5.4 and evdev 2.1.0.

Cheers,
Julien

 On my MacBook1,1, since the latest upgrade to 2.0.99.3, keys pressed in a
 graphical session in Xorg are leaking to the underlying tty. For example, if I
 stop gdm and switch to tty7, I can see what I typed during my graphical 
 session.
 But the most annoying fact is that ctrl+c affects the tty as well, and kills
 Xorg immediately.
 
 This seems to be related to this change:
 [...]
   * New upstream release.
 + don't grab the device by default
 [...]
 since if I revert back to the old evdev behaviour (with the GrabDevice 
 option),
 this issue (and #505635) disappears.
 
There was a matching change in the X server (putting the console in RAW
mode) which was supposed to prevent the key presses leaking to the
console.  I can't seem to reproduce the problem here, so any debugging
you can do would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Julien

I played a bit with -logverbose n and -verbose n but nothing useful
showed up.

Then I re-created an empty xorg.conf with only:
Section ServerFlags
Option  AllowEmptyInput   true
EndSection

... which seems to fix the issue (and #505635 hasn't occurred anymore
since then).

Right after I found this commit that explains the situation:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=d936a4235c9625bd41569cef3452dd086284e0d7

Thus this is probably not a bug but a config issue on my side.
Maybe this could be explained more clearly in xorg.conf manpage or in
the fdi file
(http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/tree/config/x11-input.fdi)?

Cheers,
Lionel
