[Bug 597673] Re: plymouth picking up the keyboard

[Dmitry Shachnev]

Just got this on Natty. Pressing Alt+F4 opens the tty4, when I press Alt+F7 back, the window is getting closed.
The same for Alt+*.

Title:
  plymouth picking up the keyboard

Status in The Plymouth splash screen:
  New
Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
  Release:        10.10

  Using plymouth_0.8.2-2ubuntu2

  After Xserver started, plymouthd is still running. And keys like "Alt-F1", "Alt-Left", "Ctrl-Alt-Delete" are still handled by plymouth.
  So, "Alt-F1" from X directs me to tty1. "Ctrl-Alt-Delete" restarts computer.

  If I stop plymouth manually and restart xserver, everything goes ok
