Hi,

i have 2 different Versions of Labtec USB Number Pad for Notebooks. Both have 
the same Serial-Number
but all the Pads my company recently purchased does not work since Kernel 
2.6.16. In contrast to
that the older Number Pad has been successfully tested with Kernel 2.6.15, 
2.6.16, 2.6.17 and 2.6.18.

producers web-page:
http://www.labtec.com/index.cfm/gear/details/EUR/EN,crid=28,contentid=709

Kernel  | 2.6.15 | 2.6.16 | 2.6.17 | 2.6.18 |
- ---------------------------------------------
new Pad | ok     | ERROR  | ERROR  | ERROR  |
old Pad | ok     | ok     | ok     | ok     |

I am grateful for any help in this case.

If you are a developer and you need such a device to fix this problem we are 
willing to supply you
with one of the new pads.

Here some more information collected from my testing system:
