[BUG] numlock/capslock status broken after switch from framebuffer console to xorg

Thu Jan 5 05:12:35 PST 2012

SYSTEM
=======
xorg: current git master
os: linux
kernel: 3.1.7, 3.2.0
hardware: AOpen i915Gmm-hfs
keyboard: connected to ps/2 port

HOW TO REPRODUCE
===================

Bug 1:
=====
1: activate numlock
2:switch to a framebuffer console
3. switch back to Xorg status: numlock led O
4. depress numlock

status after step 1: numlock led ON, numpad keys work as expected.
status after step 3: numlock led OFF (should be on)
                                  numpad keys generate numbers (ok, but inconsistend with led)
status after step 4: numlock led OFF, numpad keys produce correct codes

caps lock has the same problem.

Bug 2:
=====
<ctrl> and <alt> status is lost during a switch from framebuffer console to xorg (not vice versa).

Assuming that the <ctrl><alt><F1> hotkey switches to a framebuffer console and <ctrl><alt><F7>
switches back, try <ctrl><alt><F1> <F7> <F1> (keep <ctrl><alt> depressed all the time). This will
switch from xorg to framebuffer console and back, but the second F1 will not switch to the framebuffer
console again but do whatever action is defined for F1.
