The PSK server only (currently) supports the North American keyboard (the one with Alt keys on either side of the space bar). An older or multinational keyboard would generate the "wrong" keycodes. You should see a message like "Could not find keymap - using default" in this case. If you don't see that message (displayed in the pad that started the server), it could be that you have a xmodmap that is remapping the keyboard.
