Hi, I don't really know what's going on. Just wanted to suggest some things: 1. I don't think it has anything to do with the 'Unknown key' messages. This simply means that there are some funny keys on the keyboard that the kernel doesn't recognize. You can check it with the showkey(1) program (but under X)
2. Does it happen also when X is not running, or only under X?
3. Maybe you should try recompiling the kernel, and see if there are any
options specific to your keyboard (in menuconfig, you can search for
a string by pressing /). Maybe you should grep the kernel docs
(/usr/src/linux/Documentation) for your keyboard name.
Sorry I can't help more,
Moshe
