Subject: Strange issue with keyboard in 2.5

atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xb8, on isa0060/serio0) pressed.
atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0x9d, on isa0060/serio0) pressed.


When I press certain key combinations I get this logged.

Also if I hold down a key sometimes it gets 'stuck' and repeats forever
until I break the repeat.

Why is this happening in 2.5?

Is it due to my KVM or something else?

Thanks,

Shawn S.

Are you using 'tleds', or some other program that flashes the keyboard
LEDs?

I was using the abovementioned program, which flashes the keyboard LEDs in
response to network activity, and I had the same problem. It disappeared
when I disabled the program.

Whether this is a bug in tleds or a general issue with frobbing the keyboard
LEDs, I don't know, though.
