XInput device properties ; keymaps service & console switch

[Sebastian Glita]

Hi,

When using CTRL+ALT+F1..12 to switch between consoles and Xorg, it happens that:

1.

When I do like this:

    user at localhost ~ $ xinput set-int-prop 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse' 'Device 
Enabled' 8 0
    user at localhost ~ $ xinput list-props 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse'
    Device 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse':
            Device Enabled (131):   0
 
and then switch to console (CTRL+ALT+F1) and then back again, I get this:

    user at localhost ~ $ xinput list-props 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse'
    Device 'ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse':
            Device Enabled (131):   1

So the properties' values change betwen console switching.

2.

When I restart keymaps service like this:

    user at localhost ~ $ #eselect rc restart keymaps
    user at localhost ~ $ /etc/init.d/keymaps restart

then whenever I press:

  - F1..12 keys or
  - Alt+F1..12 or
  - the windows key,

whether Control (CTRL) key is pressed or released, it doesn't matter, I get a 
console switch each time.


Ok, so I get these versions:
