Everything quite puzzling.

I find it puzzling that people cannot reproduce this. I see this on two
quite different systems (different keyboard, system). Does really nobody
else see it?

I checked now and it happens with both when I switch with Alt-Fx
and Ctrl-Alt-Fx (at least on SUSE the later works from the consoles
too, so i usually use that)
