I've had an updated Arch kernel on my laptop for several days now and had no idea there was anything wrong. But then I came home to my old desktop and started using the numpad keys and it kept crashing and I had no idea why. But I just tried doing a shifted caps lock on my laptop and it crashed there two. This is a serious regression and hope it can be fixed soon. Wonder how kernel devs broke this thing. Thanks Chris for the suggested downgrade options; that can at least keep our heads above the water.
