Public bug reported:
Clean install of artful with all updates installed. I tried to close an
application with ALT+F4 and found myself in a console. Turns out
sometimes the keyboard gets messed up, so ALT+F keys don't do what they
should, but switches between consoles. No, my CTRL key isn't stuck down.
I have seen this on 16.04 installs running GNOME Shell, but never seen it on
Unity on the same install.
Workaround to undo it:-
sudo kbd_mode -s
