more 2.4 woes

I've finally got release 2.4 installed on my AT, but now I've run
into two problems.

1.  I remember that there was a fix posted for the keyboard led's to
    prevent a keyboard hang.  I didn't save it because it supposedly
    only happened with some machines, and I figured "well, my machine
    doesn't have the problem so my machine doesn't need the fix".  I
    should have known better...  :-)
    
    Could someone mail me the patch?  or I'd be willing to uucp it
    from somewhere.
    
    
2.  Also, I decided to try my graphics version of wanderer -- it comes
    up OK, but when it exits (and sends an ESC[=h sequence to reset the
    terminal) the EGA is not reset properly.  It looks like there is
    no longer any font -- the cursor moves, but nothing appears.  I've
    tried various other escape sequences, but nothing makes any difference.
    This must be a new feature for the 2.4 console driver, but how can
    one switch to graphics mode and back again?
    
    Also, I noticed that there appear to be graphics device drivers in
    lib0 of the linkkit -- does anyone know how to use it?

Thanks for the help.
