I posted this in the DELL forums with no response !

Hi All

I have this error


Oct 16 09:58:14 gibbylinks-laptop kernel: [ 3159.348419] atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e00d <keycode>' to make it known.
Oct 16 09:58:14 gibbylinks-laptop kernel: [ 3159.358468] atkbd serio0: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x8d on isa0060/serio0).

I have tried this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1282027 and it's also been put on launchpad as a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/549741 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/549741) although I'm not convinced it's keyboard related.

Has anyone else come across this and if so did you solve it ?

I'm running 2.6.3 BIOS on my 1501 with replacement battery.

This is the only thing spoiling my Ubuntu experience. Everything works fine despite this, it's just irritating :confused: And from browsing through the forums this has been around for a while !!

FYI

I recently replaced my hard drive with an SSD and this bug has gone !!

Very wild guess. The harddrive had a G sensor (to park heads in case of a drop). And that g sensor is providing the "unknown keypresses" the kernel is detecting?
