With vanilla kernel I meant a kernel compiled from an unmodifed
linux-2.6 git tree. Upstream without Debian patches.
I now also tested the Debian package linux-image-2.6.29-1-powerpc version 2.6.29-2.
I can't reproduce your bug with this kernel. The internal keyboard, an externel
usb keyboard and a bluetooth mouse are working.
My machine is a PowerBook5,8.
