        Thank you very much for the info. I now set
keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes to 0 and "use_linux_keycodes: yes". This
did the trick for me. Of course, the keycodes under X became
completely different, which meant that I had to re-map my Xmodmap and also
I had to take care of the console key map. Everything now works just fine
at the console, under X and at MOL. Great!

        Thanks once again,

        Daniel
