+Subject: [PATCH 09/13] at_keyboard coreboot: force scancodes2+translate
+
+Scan code set 2 with translation should be assumed in
+every case, as the default starting position.
+
+However, GRUB is trying to detect and use other modes
+such as set 2 without translation, or set 1 without
+translation from set 2; it also detects no-mode and
+assumes mode 1, on really old keyboards.
+
+The current behaviour has been retained, for everything
+except GRUB_MACHINE_COREBOOT; for the latter, scan code
+set 2 with translation is hardcoded, and forced in code.
+
+This is required to make keyboard initialisation work on
+the MEC5035 EC used by the Dell Latitude E6400, when
+running GRUB as a coreboot payload on that laptop. The
+EC reports scancode set 2 with translation when probed,
+but actually only outputs scancode set 1.
+
+Since GRUB is attempting to use it without translation,
+and since the machine reports set 2 with translation,
+but only ever outputs set 1 scancodes, this results in
+wrong keypresses for every key.
+
+This fix fixed that, by forcing set 2 with translation,
+treating it as set 1, but only on coreboot. This is the
+same behaviour used in GNU+Linux systems and SeaBIOS.
+With this change, GRUB keyboard initialisation now works
+just fine on those machines.
+
+This has *also* been tested on other coreboot machines
+running GRUB; several HP EliteBooks, ThinkPads and
+Dell Precision T1650. All seems to work just fine.
