           Summary: cant use Ctrl-Shift-* hotkeys
           Product: xorg
           Version: 6.7.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Input/Keyboard
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: shift at cmpd2.phys.msu.su


I used to use Ctrl-Shift combination to switch keyboard layouts (ru <--> us)  
but in this case i cant use any of the Ctrl-Shift-* hotkeys in any software i try.  
 
I noticed, that the keyboard layout becomes swithced as soon an both keys are DOWN -- 
pressing any other key is not treated as Ctrl-Shift-<key> combination.  
 
For example -- in Windows i also use Ctrl-Shift to switch layouts, but there, the layout 
becomes switched only when both SHIFT and CTRL keys are UP, and no other key was 
pressed while they were down -- in that case the hole combination is treates as 
Ctrl-Shift-<key> combination, and the layout is not changed.

I use the following lines in XF86Config:  
 
Section "InputDevice" 
  Driver       "Keyboard" 
  Identifier   "Keyboard[0]" 
  Option       "Protocol" "Standard" 
  Option       "XkbLayout" "us,ru" 
  Option       "XkbModel" "pc104" 
  Option       "XkbOptions" "grp:ctrl_shift_toggle" 
  Option       "XkbRules" "xfree86" 
  Option       "XkbVariant" ",winkeys" 
EndSection
