That did the trick, thank you very much :) And I see ExplorerPS/2 works like a charm with 2.4.x as well, so everything is just fine :) I guess this actually was a stupid question, and I'm sorry. > > > Second problem, if I press SHIFT+PAGEUP, my computer freezes.

I'm added #define ATKBD_DEBUG right below all the other define's in atkbd.c, did a make clean; make dep; make bzImage and tried again. I can't see any difference. It still just prints "input: AT Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0". I did, however, find out that if I press SHIFT+what ever of the buttons arrows, insert, home, page up/down, delete and end, I get just the same behaviour. It does not happen with CTRL or ALT. Thank you very much.
