I ran showkey, and pressed: alt-ctrl-f2-f2
[root@pauls-server ~]# showkey
kb mode was ?UNKNOWN?

press any key (program terminates 10s after last keypress)...
ALT:
keycode  28 release
keycode  56 press
keycode  56 release
CTRL:
keycode  29 press
keycode  29 release
F2
^[OQkeycode  60 press
keycode  60 release
