Catching keyboard shortcuts (ctrl-alt-F1) in linux

I'm currently running a linux host (using xserver-xorg), with a windows host - through a VDM. However I'm having a couple of shortcut issues.

1. I need to use excel, and would like the 'ctrl-alt-F9' shortcut to be used in the windows guest - however this changes my linux hosts virtual terminal...which I believe is an xserver shortcut

2. If you make the window full screen - is it possible to 'return to host' with a key combination? If the window happens to not start over the taskbar (multi-monitor) then its ok, but if it starts on the taskbar then its pretty much impossible to return to the guest. Of course if I use the VDM multi-screen I have no chance.

Thanks,

Chris
