Hi,
Does anyone here have a USB Happy Hacking Keyboard Lite Mk 2 keyboard?
On connecting to my 2.4.18 Linux system I find that it works great,
except that certain triples of keys produce four characters instead of
three when typed in rapid succession. This happens under XFree86 and
also at a tty. For example, typing `swa' rapidly produces `swaw'.
Further investigation revealed that only certain combination of keys
exhibit the problem. More examples are
keys produces
rty rtty
yui yuui
tyu tyuy
swa swaw
jhg jhgh
But other won't show the problem, e.g. `zxc', `asd', and `qwe'.
My theory is that usbkbd.o doesn't cope with ErrorRollover which is
being generated, unlike hid.o which didn't used to but does now.

Diffing 2.4.18's usbkbd.c against 2.5.7 suggests the problem still
exists in 2.5.7.
I'd like to know that others can re-produce the problem.
Cheers,
Ralph.
