[Bug 1429766] Re: Alt+Left/RightArrow switches from graphic into text virtual console (Vivid)

 

Sorry, but this isn't low. This affects a major shortcut prominent in
every browser: history back/forth.

It's highly annoying if this suddenly switches the VT.

Title:
  Alt+Left/RightArrow switches from graphic into text virtual console
  (Vivid)

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After some dist-upgrades of my Vivid testing system I noticed that
  Alt+Left/Right started to switch from GUI into prev/next text virtual
  console (as well as prev/next web page in Web browser which I used to
  using). I would like to restore their function back as expected (web
  page navigation only, not VConsoles). Please advise on what to
  reconfigure or downgrade.
