I tried this once, but failed big way. Turning the IKBD off for a moment
didn't seem to turn off keyboard interrupts coming in. Turning it on again
didn't always result in proper mouse handling afterwards. I also tried
shutting off the keyboard interrupt via Jdisint(), but this led to even
more trouble. I am _very_ interested in any hint to this problem.
Anyone out there? Tnx!
