They seem to come at random, sometimes one every second or so, sometimes there's a gap of 15-30 seconds between the messages. But they don't every seem to stop completely. I *think* the laptop has an accelerometer, and I've noticed that picking the laptop up and moving it around seems to generate some activity. Any suggestions?

This is harmless; some minimal functionality may be missing from not knowing how to interpret the events, but there is no problem with leaving the events unprocessed. However, the messages can clutter up the kernel logs and can also cause users to fear that there is a problem with their system. Fix: Demote these messages to pr_debug until we know how to handle them, causing them to no longer be printed by default. Test Case: Using a patched driver results in the messages no longer appearing in the kernel log. --- On a Dell Latitude XT2 (tablet PC with N-Trig touch screen) I see a constant stream of messages in syslog like this: ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee6 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee7 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee9 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee8 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key ffd0 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee6 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee8 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key fee9 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key 11 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key ffd1 pressed ... kernel: [timestamp] [host]: Unknown key e048 pressed There is no keyboard or mouse activity, but the messages still keep coming.
