- Hmmm.. I thought I was the only one with this problem, or my
- father at least. We got the same sporadic marking & numbers that
- you describe, though we hadn't traced it to emm386 since it had
- always been active. What we did is switch keyboards; apparently
- if you are using an old kbd it sometimes doesn't like it.
