I have a Microsoft Wireless Desktop Elite Keyboard, and while I really, really like it, I've noticed that Linux (meaning the kernel, not the GNU operating system) does not like it.
Every time I boot into a GNU/Linux distribution--even LNX-BBC, which I'm using for computer diagnostics--I get an error code: keyboard: unknown scancode e0 59
I don't know what this means, as I can keep on typing normally, but apparently others have this problem, too:
