Hi. /etc/init.d/keymaps contains some problems. 1.EXTENDED_KEYMAP should set after KEYMAP for some extended keymaps. (e.g. /usr/share/keymaps/i386/include/{backspace,ctrl}.map.gz) 2.Default EXTENDED_KEYMAP is windowkeys now. It is not good for non-i386 systems. thanks.

I think "windowkeys" should be also set after KEYMAP. If KEYMAP defines 'keycode 12[567]', "windowkeys" has no effect.
