Subject: Freaky 2.5.40 keyboard behavior
Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2002 17:58:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200210021658.g92Gwbdg000900@darkstar.example.net> (raw)
OK, this is a really surreal problem:
I am using a Japanese AT keyboard, (an IBM 94X1110), with 2.5.40, and noticed entries like these in the syslog:
Oct 2 17:26:00 darkstar kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xb6, on
isa0060/serio0) pressed.
Oct 2 17:50:22 darkstar kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xa7, on
isa0060/serio0) pressed.
Oct 2 17:50:22 darkstar kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xa3, on
isa0060/serio0) pressed.
Oct 2 17:50:22 darkstar kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xa4, on
isa0060/serio0) pressed.
Oct 2 17:50:35 darkstar kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xa6, on
isa0060/serio0) pressed.
The funny thing is, I cannot reproduce them by pressing any single key - even the Henkaku/Zenkaku key, which is about the most non-standard compared to a U.K. keyboard, (the kana shift keys are mapped to space bar), doesn't report anything odd.
However, I can reproduce it by banging repeatedly on 't', 'h', '@', and ';'.
Any idea at all what is causing this? By the way, I have the Russian keymap loaded, because it fits this keyboard better than the Japanese keymap, (this is a weird keyboard, incase you haven't guessed).
Sayonara :-)
John.
