You can turn it of in xorg.conf and maybe in kdmrc. Have you done etc-update? Option "DontVTSwitch" "boolean" This disallows the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Fn sequence (where Fn refers to one of the numbered function keys). That sequence is normally used to switch to another "virtual terminal" on operat- ing systems that have this feature. When this option is enabled, that key sequence has no special meaning and is passed to clients. Default: off. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
