Hi,

> This one: pid 0 (MiNT): kbd_repeat: reset kbd_lock ? Or is it ikbd_scan?

First time i tried it was kbd_repeat, today I reproduced it 3 times with
infinite key repeat and message "pid 0 (MiNT): ikbd_scan: reset kbd_lock".

I forgot to mention that i updated to mintlib-0.58.0-1 (sparemint rpm) a few
days ago. Don't know if this matters...

Testing this is really annoying because i have to reboot all the time :-(
