I can reproduce the bug in Ubuntu 18.04.1 by re-configuring keyboard-
configuration package (version 1.178ubuntu2.7) with DISPLAY being
unset/empty, e.g.:
tuomas@matta:~ 0 $ sudo DISPLAY= DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive \
dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.130ubuntu3.1) ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.15.0-33-generic
And after running this Alt+F2 switches to VT2 even from X11. When
switching back to X11 (with Alt+F1), it appears that the Alt+F2 also
goes to X11, since the krunner popup opens (bound to Alt+F2).
Running "sudo kbd_mode -s" in a terminal window within X11 makes the
Alt+Fx keys act normally again.

Title:
Alt-f2 switches to virtual terminal 2
Status in console-cyrillic package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm running Ubuntu Lucid development branch.
Pressing alt-f2 switches the screen to the second virtual terminal.
Alt-f3 does the same to the third and so on. I expected alt-f2 to open
the run dialog.
I'm pretty sure that my keyboard is not malfunctioning as I can use
all my applications normally. (Pressing O and Ctrl-O do not have the
same effect.)
I'm not sure which package I should file this bug against. I'll
happily do an apport-collect once I know.
