Every one of my Gentoo machines sees the following once in a while:

Code:

atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It shouldn't access hardware directly.


Does anyone know what this means? Is there a fix in process? Does it matter? Do I care?

Thanks a bunch! :)

I've been getting this on my machine as well. Doesn't seem to cause any harm, and everything works right, but it is rather curious...

There already was a thread like this a while ago. The point was, that just ingore it. It in fact is a XFree bug, but it doesn't do any harm.

I changed my motherboard, and now I have theese errors, thing is that glx has stopped working, and games and so on just bombs out.

I wonder if it has to do with the fact that my new board don't support lower than 4x AGP, and that my TNT don't support higher than 2x.

hm, I just thought of something..

what motherboards do you have? chipset and so on, maybe it is a bug related to intel 875?

and what is the output of lsmod ?

what modules do you have compiled in under agpgart?


I get this error on my abit ic7 max3 using an old nvidia TNT2 ultra graphics card

XFree86 was fixed (post 4.4) thanks to this message. kbdrate is also
fixed in the current version. With latest XFree86 and latest kbd package
you shouldn't be getting this message anymore.


But hey, we are not supposed to be running the latest XFree, are we? :-(
And kbdrate seems to cause this log message also, as you see.
