That seemed to make no difference, but today I tried daily-20050302 image and the keyboard was usable again. So that problem seems to be partly solved. So I now can move the cursor and select items, but due to the display problem I'm unable to tell which menu-item is active. I can of course select blindly, but that's not really what it should be like ;-) As I was able to dig out a VT220 terminal, I could try installing with serial console (unable to find a nullmodem-cable, but a VT220 *g*) - this worked until debian-installer complained about not being able to find and mount the installation CD. But I should probably investigate a bit more and file another bugreport for that. So regarding this report, the biggest problem about the unusable keyboard seems to be fixed, but selection of options is not really fun due to the messed-up screen - display is fine in serial console though.
