It doesn't seem to fix the problem:

# dmesg -c
# setkeycodes e05f 127
# setkeycodes e05e 127
# dmesg -c
[ pressing some keys here ]
# dmesg -c
keyboard: unknown scancode e0 5e
keyboard: unknown scancode e0 5e
keyboard: unknown scancode e0 5f
keyboard: unknown scancode e0 5f

Am I doing something wrong ?
