I don't know what to tell you. When I compiled 2.4 (no detectable problems),
I wasn't using the input (and in fact had it disabled). Not necessarily a
useful piece of information. The symptom that I notice is software
autorepeat going bananas when the hardware at least knows the key has been
released and would not be sending hardware autorepeat events...
