Re: X11R7.0

Yop, that seems to work. I'm useing
setxkbmap de -keycodes 'xfree86+aliases(qwertz)+aliases(evdev)' -option

but my up/down keys are a mess. Pressing them sometimes causes a 100% 
CPU load (Xorg and kwin). But this happens only on console :0 with a 
ps/2 keyboard and only with the extra cursor keys (not those on the numpad).

On console :2 (usb) it runs smoothly, everything's fine.

Tell me if I can provide you with some debug info.

Sorry, avilis. I don't have a X build system installed here and (if 
debian helps me) never will so I can't test the patches. But thanks anyway.
