Hmmm.... I heard of strange interactions between the keyboard and the
ps2 mouse. Unfortunately, I've no ps2 mouse to test it out.

You might want to call Roman Hodek (rnhodek@immd2.informatik.uni-erlangen.de),
who patched the psaux module to prevent these hangs. He promised to post
to the list, but I didn't see his posting. Please note that roman
is not subscribed to linux-kernel (It was me who suggested to post, or to
send it to me, but nothing happened)
