as this points to my posts...

my problem is not the interrupt storm, but that I dont have assigned irq for
keyboard (which makes it slow I think).

and this is clear regression because in 5.3R it worked ;(

where should I look (in sources) what changed? I am not very skilled with this
lowlevel stuff but I am able and willing to try to hunt this down.

thnx for reply
