Subject:   Keyboard hang on Lenovo T520

Hi!

I've just tried to install 8.2 amd64 on a newly bought Lenovo T520.  This
hangs during keyboard probe with the last output on a verbose boot being

kbdc: RESET_KBD return code:00fa
kbdc: RESET_KBD status:00aa

This looks like the same symptoms as in
http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/svn-rev-197392-hangs-during-boot-td3926276.html,
where Xin Li had a patch to revert the use of x86bios for atkbd.

Does this kind of thing still make sense (ie, should I try to build a new
install medium with that patch applied)?

If so, is there something I can do to help make this work automatically?
 (I'm out of touch and haven't done much with FreeBSD for a fair number of
years, so I don't know what's going on development-wise.)

Eivind.
