As I already wrote in the thread: I could reporduce it for some Acer and HP 
machines, but I couldn't reporduce _one_ single unknown scancode for 
IBM/Lenovo machines (with 2.6.22 and booted with init=/bin/bash). I would 
like to know how they get these unknown scancodes for e.g. a T60/T61 or any 
other IBM/Lenovo.
