Rare keyboard lockup

[Mario Spinthiras]

I get the distinct feeling that it is not only a PS2 issue. I have had an
incident or two when the keyboard does funny stuff on my laptop. It seems as
though some keys simply freeze with the exception of maybe 1-2 non
alphanumeric keys. This could be nothing but I will keep an eye on it.

Regards,
Mario
