If you have a Dell machine, it is likely the problem with too short
delay loops in the keyboard code. It may affect other keyboards too,
but it has so far only been seen on Dell machines. It has been fixed;
you may want to try the bootimage and kernel that can be found in
pub/NetBSD/arch/i386/dell-1.3 on ftp.netbsd.org or one of its mirrors.
