Subject: Alt-arrow console switch sometimes dropped
Date: Sat, 3 Jan 2004 14:37:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040103133746.GA516@elf.ucw.cz> (raw)

Hi!

Alt-arrow console switch is routinely dropped under high load. This
patch fixes it: alt-arrow has to start from console _we want to switch
to_, if switch is already pending. Please apply,
								Pavel
