After upgrading to Xorg 7.2 "by the book" (/usr/ports/UPDATING), I could not switch my keyboard layouts as I did with the previous version. Even more, I could not switch to text-mode console using Ctrl-Alt-F1. After I've regenerated a new xorg.conf using "Xorg -configure", I was able to switch to text-mode console, but after adding the two lines for keyboard layout switch (from my old xorg.conf): Option "XkbLayout" "us,ro" Option "XKbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle" Ctrl-Alt-F1 stopped working and the keyboard layout switching did not work. Google gave me some hints from the Gentoo documentation site regarding the imposibility to switch to text-mode console, but the solutions provided there did not work for me. Are there any substantial changes in the way that keyboard layout switching works in X.org 7.2 vs. 6.9? # uname -a FreeBSD kpax 7.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #2: Sat Jun 2 20:00:40 EEST 2007 root@kpax:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
