Unfortunately, 2.6.20 atkbd.c continuously spams the console after a
kernel panic (my fault), with these messages:

...
kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
atkbd.c: Spurious ACK on isa0060/serio0. Some program might be trying access hardware directly.
atkbd.c: Spurious ACK on isa0060/serio0. Some program might be trying access hardware directly.

atkbd.c: Spurious ACK on isa0060/serio0. Some program might be trying access hardware directly.
...

These appear to be getting generated in response to the flashing of the keyboard LEDs
in response to the kernel panic.

Could somebody fix this please?


Hi Mark,

Please try 2.6.21-rc1, it should be fixed properly there. If not
please let me know.

Thanks!
