Yeah, neither versions are all that safe to use.

Something happened way back when as everyone upgraded to a newer 2007 OS. Since then Xkbd input would produce random signals, some of which would force you to reboot because it caused that much chaos.

I'm slowly homing in on a fix.

I do need help with any theories people might have on what caused the sudden change between OS versions.

Here's what I think I know...
gconftool-2 --set -t bool /system/osso/af/keyboard-attached true
or
/etc/osso-af-init/keyboard.sh stop

Either of these two commands makes Xkbd function correctly again since it stops the hildon keyboard.

Only problem with this is that the ' " ~ keys no longer work, but that's the only trouble I've seen so far.

Here's the thing though, if I select the Spanish hildon keyboard, those keys will stop working on that as well. I'm not sure what that means.

Well, I reflashed to the first ever 2007 release and copied the /usr/share/X11 and /etc/osso-af-init/ folders to my memory card.

Any suggestions on what old files I should copy back to Diablo to see if this fixes anything?

Again, I'm willing to test out any ideas from you guys.

Thanks.


Edit:
And since I don't know what the heck I'm doing here, I need some ideas.
