You could try 2 things,

	1) in pcvt_kbd.c at line 165, change PCVT_UPDLED_LOSES_INTR from
		0 to 1, recompile it and test if it solves the problem

	2) or, change PCVT_NO_LED_UPDATE in pcvt_conf.c to do no LED
		updateing at all.

These keyboard problems are totally frustrating, even more as i am not able
to reproduce any of them over here. It seems as if the main device involved
is the 8042 keyboard controller on the motherboard which seems to behave
very strange in some implementations, the keyboard itself does play a role,
but it seems to be not that important than the 8042.
