I had similar problems with my new 440TX motherboard, the easier fix
(without loosing keyboard leds) was to add #define INIT_KBD in
drivers/char/keyboard.c
I see that INIT_KBD is defined for all architectures but i386, this
is probably because the bios should have reset&setup the keyboard
properly, i guess some bioses don't do this the right way.
