I was starting to think you had forgot me :)

The patch helped a lot. Now it doesn't crash at all. But when I use
RIGHT-ALT+PAGE-UP, I get these errors a couple of times, then it
suddenly works as it should.

atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0x1b6, on isa0060/serio0) pressed.
input: AT Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0

I think the first key is LEFT-SHIFT+PAGE-UP, and the rest the same with
right-shift. Anyway, after those first errors, it works perfect. No
freeze like before. Thanks :) Great work :)
