thanks
(removing because the 'moreinfo' question has been answered)

Note that just ignoring the keymap for 2.6 kernels would result in 
problems for people who have localized (e.g. French or German) keyboards.
It should only be ignored if the current keymap is a Sun type keymap (if 
that can be detected).

Maybe the best option would be to allow the user to install separate 
keymaps for 2.4 and 2.6, but that is probably quite a lot of work.

Additional note
AFAICT this same problem goes for USB-MAC keymaps and other arch-specific 
keymaps as well, although the breakage is especially severe in the case 
of Sun type keymaps. It is a general 2.4 -> 2.6 transition problem.
