Thanks! What was the bug? I'd be interested.

Also, any plans to implement GPF handling? I tried booting a test environment I have on it (which runs Python as part of the GRUB2 bootloader), but it failed primarily due to lack of support for trapping GPFs. (There are a few other issues I'd have to work around to make it work, but that's a major one that I can't easily work around.)

Chromium and Firefox send different key codes for `-` and `=` (see http://unixpapa.com/js/testkey.html).

Regarding GPFs: This is one of the few things that are not completely implemented yet, I'm working on figuring this out.
