Is there a way to disable only key combination for Ctrl+Alt+F8?
I need to use this shortcut in another application and when I trigger it, I am getting switched to the blank console (other user space). I am the only user on a machine and don't need this shortcut ever.
Ideally, I would be able to preserve keyboard shortcuts 1 to 7.

Run the following command to find the keycode value of the desired key:
xev
With the small box in foreground, press the key and note the keycode value. Then run this:
xmodmap -e 'keycode number = NoSymbol'
That should disable the key. To make it permanent, put this command in the System, Preferences, Sessions, Startup Programs folder, Add.
