HAL Keymap Quirks

Today trying to start the wifi I discover things were not working as expected. Check this thread:

http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.user/browse_thread/thread/a35291009da3f16d

So searching on the net for:

[ 446.068109] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x88 on isa0060/serio0).
[ 446.068117] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e008 ' to make it known.


reveal this bug report on debian:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475851

Which lead to this page:

http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/quirk-keymap-index.html

Bad luck, this is not working anymore and there is no redirect. Using web.archive I found this page:

http://web.archive.org/web/20080224232936/http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/quirk-keymap-index.html

Searching for keywords on this page, reveal that this page has moved to:

http://hal.freedesktop.org/quirk/quirk-keymap-index.html

Pheeww.... that was hard !
