Dmitry,
I fixed the problem by updating my BIOS. My motherboard is an MSI K8T NEO FIS2R with a BIOS from 2004. I just yesterday flashed the BIOS and now kernel 2.6.10 boots and responds to the keyboard fine.
The changelog for the MSI BIOS is here: http://www.msicomputer.com/support/bios_result.asp?platform=AMD&model=K8T%20Neo-FIS2R/FSR%20(MS-6702)&newsearch=1
