would setkeycodes still just work for PS2 keyboards?
I upgraded to newer kbd-1.13 package (kernel 2.6.21), and while trying
to change sysrq keycode still I get the old error:
KDSETKEYCODE: No such device
failed to set scancode 38b7 to keycode 84
which I reported on gentoo a long time ago:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97388
(it doesn't use EVIOCSKEYCODE)
maybe I'm not picking up the right program?
