2.5.3[3-4] mouse and keyboard flakiness report

Running the attached config on my HP Pavilion zt1195 laptop I get some strange
keyboard and mouse behavior. First, when I first try to log into X the keyboard
is a little wacky: alt behaves as Fn, m doesn't work at all, etc. It seems
to go away after a bunch of key presses for no apparent reason. I do get
this from the kernel log

      atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xbc, on isa0060/serio0) pressed.

but that's about it. Then when X windows starts first my mouse buttons have
been reversed from the normal left handed behavior and then when I try to
cut and paste the cut motion never turns off so subsequent movements of the
mouse just keep trying to select regions from that first window. Eventually
I just have to reboot so I can actually work normally.
