I keep getting the following in my syslog whenever I startx:

Jan 26 13:43:56 debian kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key released 
(translated set 2, code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
Jan 26 13:43:56 debian kernel: atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It 
shouldn't access hardware directly.
Jan 26 13:43:57 debian kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key released 
(translated set 2, code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
Jan 26 13:43:57 debian kernel: atkbd.c: This is an XFree86 bug. It 
shouldn't access hardware directly.

I don't get the error with the 2.4.24 kernel.

I'm using an ancient IBM PS2 swedish keyboard, and this 0x7a crap began
showing somewhere at 2.6.1 (then without blaming X). Now it is - and the
blame on X came with 2.6.2-rc2:
