Could you please apply this patch to 2.4. It fixes a very annoying problem with logitech wireless keyboard/mouse combinations. Every time a mouse button is pressed the message

keyboard.c: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 272

appears on the console, which is somewhat annoying especially if you want to use gpm. For 2.5 this has been fixed by the patch in
