Comment 10 for bug 201711

Hi Raphael,

I *really* agree with you. I bought this nice shiny Apple keyboard for my Ubuntu desktop and it just worked perfectly. Then someone got this brilliant idea of adding all sorts of "quirks" in the kernel to emulate some MacOS X behavior and now suddenly overnight the keyboard became almost useless.
- The F-keys stopped working to a usable level expected by a normal Linux user (This bug)
- The NumLock key would "lock up" the entire keyboard (Bug #201887)
- Two keys were incorrectly swapped for no apparent reason (Bug #214786)

And the worst part is that is seems like Hardy may ship with these errors in place :-(
