AllowDeactivateGrabs broken?

[Pierce Ward]

Hi,

Unfortunately I have no output in Xorg.0.log when I press this key
combination (for instance if I try it with a full screen game the only
output is nvidia changing the resolution).

I have however checked "xev" to see if the key combination of "CRTL+ALT+/"
outputs anything. While CTRL+ALT are recognised, the "/" on the keypad is
not (The same can be said for the plus/minus/*). On it's own the "/" key is
recognised as:

KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x1e00001,
    root 0x136, subw 0x0, time 1959476354, (165,-17), root:(876,488),
    state 0x10, keycode 112 (keysym 0xffaf, KP_Divide), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (2f) "/"
    XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (2f) "/"
    XFilterEvent returns: False

I hope this can be of a bit more help in finding the problem, if you need
anything else, please let me know.

Regards,
