Adi,

could you please provide output of

	cat /syse/kernel/debug/hid/<keyboard>/rdesc

anytime after the keyboard has been plugged, and

	cat /syse/kernel/debug/hid/<keyboard>/events

from the time you press any of the working and non-working keys? (both 
cases will be interesting).

Oh, and the above assumes that you have debugfs mounted under 
/sys/kernel/debug.

Thanks,
