Hi!

With X11, the NumLock key is no longer working (seems the 2.4.x -> 2.6.x
transition:) I've seen the the gsc_ps2 driver got some really nice
touch-ups since it's 2.4.x version, but NumLock doesn't work. With
debugging switched on, I get these lines:

This is first having typed "startx" and then I pressed the numlock key
several times. However, the NumLock LED isn't switched on. Instead, the
whole keyboard is no longer responsive at all. Switching back to a VC
(shutting down X11 by mouse or remotely issueing a 'chvt 2') gives me
back control over my kbd...
