The patch is in SCO 2.2.1 Operating System Release Notes Section 3.3 (page 13)
I wouldn't think the patch would work with 2.1.0 . 

The patch is when you have: system console does not repond or echo keys typed,
cannot flip Multiscreens, keyboard LEDs do not change, other terminals work,
printer still works, and system is still running.

For 2.2.1 the patch is: (make sure your system backedup and you backup the
			 kernal)
	# adbL -w /xenix
	  ledspresent/w 0
	  $q

And reboot. (I don't know what will happen on a 2.1.0 kernal)
