Hi, 
	Has anyone seen XFreeX86 1.2 loose characters and mouse events?
I am running with pccons and patchkit 0.2.1, and I am not using the
kernals that they provided. Also I am having problems with the 
state of the control key. If you hit ^C or something sometimes the
state of the control key gets stuck in the down position. If you depress
control the keyboard behaves normally again. Lastly backspace doesn't work
after a while. If I do stty < /dev/tty it says 

....
erase
^H


	Could someone please enlighten me as to what my problem is?


	Thanks a lot.

	Sincerely,

	Lars Fredriksen
