Aug 27 18:53:41 hummus2 kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0x9d, on isa0060/serio0) pressed. Aug 27 19:15:14 hummus2 kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0xb9, on isa0060/serio0) pressed. Aug 27 19:42:50 hummus2 kernel: atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 2, scancode 0x9d, on isa0060/serio0) pressed.
