Alan, sorry to reply in this patch about it, but I forgot to tag that previous
patch, sent some weeks ago: "Move OS-specific VT key handler code from common
to os-support"

Tested-by: Tiago Vignatti <tiago.vignatti at nokia.com> (GNU/Linux)


So I don't know now how / if you're gonna deal with the appliance order of
this new one.

Thanks,

            Tiago
