Since 2.5.1 I have placed into the kernel part of the new console system
code into the DJ tree. So it has been well tested. I was hoping to have
all the keyboard devices ported over to the input api and the fbdev
drivers over to the new api. Unfortunely due to time restraints this will
not be the case. So here goes the first installment of the new console
system. Please test it yourselves and I will push it to Linus soon.

With your patch, I have to release the alt key between Fx keys to change
VTs.  Is that intentional?

Without the patch, I can hold down alt and hit F1, F2, F3, F4, then
release the alt key and I will have switched to each of the VTs.
With this patch, I have to press/release alt for each Fx key.
