["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Tom Louwrier, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11.1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [Dell Latitude 131L] keyboard not recognized properly; logs fill up
  with messages

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  hi

  Running Ubuntu Lucid amd64 on a Dell Latitude 131L (AMD chips),
  updated twice a day at the moment.

  Linux seems not to recognize the keyboard in my laptop well. Starting early in the boot process (well before X kicks in) I see error messages on the screen. The same messages then swamp the logs. A sample:
  =============
  [19667.508573] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19667.508580] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  [19668.588701] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19668.588712] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  [19668.600223] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19668.600230] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  [19669.717801] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19669.717811] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  [19669.729365] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19669.729373] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  [19670.825302] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19670.825313] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  [19670.835700] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).
  [19670.835707] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
  =============
  This goes on every second until shut down.

  It's been there for a while now, but I haven't made -or found- a bug report about it yet. I did some googling and it seems related to not-so-standard handling of hotkeys (which you would find on a laptop) by the bios. However, I have not found a solution.
  It is possible to 'shut up' the messages by assigning e00d to an unused keycode, but that is just hiding the symptom. Also that kills the screen saver / blackout and it breaks my repeating keys, so not an option really.

  If there is anything I should do to provide more information, please
  let me know.

  cheers
  Tom
