[Steps:] Keyboard cannot work well in KDB

[Zhang, Sonic]

Hi,

        I encounter a problem of the keyboard in KDB. The patch version is
kdb-2.5-2.4.19 for i386 with pristine kernel 2.4.19.

        The keyboard cannot work well in KDB. When you press a key,
sometimes there is no character echoed on the screen, and sometimes two
characters echoed on the screen. It is really annoying because you cannot
type continuously.

        This happens on a server with 2 processors. But I can't reproduce it
on my desktop machine.

        Is it a known bug?

        Otherwise, sometimes in KDB , only capital letters can be inputted.
        It may be a little hard to re-produce because when you first enter
KDB mode, you may not encounter this situation. After doing some operations
in KDB, e.g. set some breakpoint, suddenly I found every letter I input is
capital letter and I can not switch to small letter mode.  

        Is this the same problem?

        Thanks.
