hello ,
I have Fedora Core 1 one in my home PC. It' reports a bug like this ...
atkbd.c : This is an XFree86 bug .It should not access hardware directly. atkbd.c: unknown key released (translated set 2,code 0x7a on isa0060/serio0).
Please tell me if possible what the error message indicates.

Ah good, that's a start. It's more or less what I figured though. Wether the "fix" is simple or not depends on why X exactly is accessing the keyboard controller, which I may have known at one point but don't recall.
The FAQ seems to state that the kernel detects this *cough* problem *cough* and handles it properly however, so there's no problem actually occuring (at least that I can see). Wouldn't be a high priority to look into, but low priority bugs such as this are good low hanging fruit for interested volunteers to help out OSS development by tracking the problem down and trying to fix it.
If anyone is interested in looking at this and needs any assistance figuring out X, etc. feel free to ping me in #freedesktop, or #xfree86 on irc.freenode.net.
Might want to drop it in bugzilla also as a low priority tracker bug perhaps.
