* Confirming comment #56 by Endolith, 1st and 3rd observation: hald-
addon-dell-backlight is taking much CPU, and strange behaviour of menus.
* Confirming comment #91 by Daniel Knitt-Frank: When I got locked due to
Fn+up/dn, I had to press Ctrl+Alt+F{n} then Ctrl+Alt+F7 again to fully
restore the functionality of keyboard.
* Confirming as well comments #126 and #131 by Wirawan Purwanto.
* Try last kernel from intrepid-proposed (2.6.27-11-generic, 22 dec.),
no change.
* Apply patch from Richard Hughes in comment #68 with modification from Kārlis
M. in comment #93 (sources from git, on 24 dec.)
static struct dmi_system_id atkbd_dmi_quirk_table[] __initdata = {
{
.ident = "Dell Laptop",
.matches = {
DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "Dell Computer Corporation"),
DMI_MATCH(DMI_CHASSIS_TYPE, "8"),
},
.callback = atkbd_setup_fixup,
.driver_data = atkbd_dell_laptop_keymap_fixup,
},
Not so easy to compile ;-) (I haven't done it from years...)
Reboot, and ... it works !

I forget to change the flavor...
This point is still not taken in account in new kernel release ?
