 From the Lineak install guide: http://lineak.sourceforge.net

USB keyboards may not work or just partially. If possible, use PS/2 for 
the time being. If this isn't
possible, email the X.org development or Linux USB mailing list. Tell 
them the make and model keyboard you have, and what scancodes are not 
generating events.
