I've been happily using matchbox for three or more years, first on an iPaq, then on a Boxer with OZ. I switched to Angstrom, and Alt-Tab doesn't work anymore. I tried to play a bit with /etc/matchbox/kbdconfig, and it seems to me the problem is not there - it would seem that all Alt key combinations are "intercepted" before reaching matchbox. I haven't much time to investigate, if anybody has any suggestion I may give them a shot before jumping to e17, which I love from desktop usage...
