Did you try plugging them both in simultaneously and typing a few keys on one, then the other, then back? You said that some keys simply don't work. Do they do anything at all? What happens if you run /usr/openwin/demo/xev from a terminal, put focus into the 'xev' window and type these keys? How do the keyboard event reports in the terminal window differ from what you see when you hit those keys on the Type 6 keyboard? Can you try these keyboards on the server's console? > Firmware on the DTU is the newest one (4.0_127553-01_2007.11.09.17.41) > > All the DTU (i only have 2 of them) show the same problem.

And you have more than one Type 7 keyboard misbehaving in this way, correct? If you still have the old 4.0 RR/GA firmware images you could try reverting to those to see if that changes the keyboard's behaviour. None of the fixes in the patch should have affected keyboard handling, and certainly none of them should have affected only Type 7 Swiss-German keyboards, but if the old image works and the new one fails then that narrows the possibilities.
