Hmm, now it even works with atkbd compiled in ... In trying to get S3 to
work I more or less disabled everything. So the problem isn't solely
atkbd, but a combination of atkbd and/or i8042 with some other driver.
I'll try enabling some drivers and see what combinations generates the
problem, but not very soon, this free evening is over for me...
