Just to clarify -- you are seeing the kbd error with 2.6.18 and you
tried 2.6.24-1-xen-686 from sid but it didn't work for you at all?
3.0.3 is a bit long in the tooth I can well imagine there are bugs which
prevent the pv_ops kernel from working there -- is there any reason not
to upgrade to 3.1 or 3.2?

OK, so it isn't affecting me then for some reason, whether that is down
to kernel version or not I don't know.
