Public bug reported: Running under X, dosbox does not notice when I press Ctrl-F1, Ctrl-F9, etc. Emacs receives these keys fine, so it appears to be a dosbox problem, not a unity one.
When I run dosbox under the console, the screen is scrambled, Ctrl-f9 is ignored, and I have to use killall in another console to exit dosbox. I tried usescancodes = false in .dosboxrc but it did not change anything (I run dosbox with the -conf key, so the conf file is read, as I can see from the output from the [autoexec] section).
