On the advice of a third party, I added this: Section "ServerFlags" Option "DontZap" "false" Option "DontZoom" "true" Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "true" # XFree86 4.[34].x - Add "DontVTSwitch" to be false (for # console switching). Option "DontVTSwitch" "false" Option "HandleSpecialKeys" "always" # Xorg 6.8.(2|99.903) - Add "XkbDisable" to be true (for # console switching). Option "XkbDisable" "true" EndSection at the end of my xorg.conf. This has fixed the "ctl+alt+" problem. There may be side effects, but so far I haven't triggered any of them. Robert Huff
