While that command can indeed by used at init, it will not solve your
underlying problems.

You should look at the scancodes in question. Have a read of 'loadkeys',
'dumpkeys', 'showkey'. They all have manpages..... You might also consider
posting some of the errors here to the list. You'll find them in
/var/log/messages
