USB keyboard problem

[w0lfie]

Something I forgot to add...
 
The keyboard_t struct kbd is passed to the ukbd_interrupt
function. Within this struct, there is a ukbd_state struct
that includes ks_ndata and ks_odata (new and current data?).
Which part of the system actually fills in the ks_ndata
struct? Is this filled in externally to the ukbd driver?
Such as the usb hid driver?
 
What I am getting at is my problem may not be within the
ukbd driver but within the mechanism that fills in ks_ndata.
If this is the case, I should be looking at that piece of
code rather than the ukbd driver.
