Public bug reported: I've just upgraded my 9.10 to 10.04. If I boot the latest 9.10 available kernel (linux-image-2.6.31-21-generic), fn+F8 switches the vga output as expected. If I boot linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic, fn+F8 does nothing (in a gnome-terminal it prints a lowecase "p").
Other fn+F* combinations do work as expected. I'm going to compile the latest vanilla kernel, I'll post the results here as soon as they're available.
