Hello all.

I have an install of TrinuxHD on one of my machines that is hooked into
a KVM (keyboard/video/mouse) switch.  There are a couple of ways to
switch between machines, but the easiest is by using a keyboard
combination, which is hitting scroll lock key twice, followed by a
number 01-08.  Unfortunately, hitting the scroll lock a couple of times
in a row will oftentimes cause a "too many NACKs -- noisy kbd cable?"
message to appear in Trinux (and other Linux installations) and will
then freeze the keyboard so that no keys function at all (not even
combinations like ctrl-alt-del).  Linux/Trinux must then be rebooted...
what a drag :(

I have a feeling this is a low-level type of thing that would need to
be fixed (aka adjusted) by hacking some kernel code but I really don't
have the depth of knowledge in this area to know whether I can do
anything to fix the situation or not.  Perhaps Linux can be told to be
less sensitive to the scroll lock key or rapid hitting of that key?

Any suggestions or ideas regarding this are appreciated.

TIA,
- Dave
