Bug#640699: keyboard problem with xserver xfbdev: why does it not work?

[pasquale_frega@libero.it]

Xorg does not work on my system, it does crash on exit; i am not able to 
know the cause. The screen make black, i am not able to change session 
(by ctrl+alt+f1-f6), to kill it (by ctrl+alt+space), the only way is 
to reboot the system by pressing ctrl+alt+del. I have only "4mb video ram" 
but i use a very minimal desktop enviroment (a file manager called tkdesk 
and xterm) so this should not be the main cause. 
Why does it crash?
