Initially I thought this worked great, but I've run into a snag.
Leaving my xorg.conf configured like it was initially (-r4, kernel 2.4),
I can't seem to VT-switch away from X. The ability to switch is, as far
as I can tell, simply gone.
Unless there's something that should have changed in xorg.conf in
regards to the keyboard driver with the new -r6 version, I'm stumped as
to what happened here.
FWIW, this is on an SMP U60, type 5 serial keyboard.
