>Description:

The key mapping for scan code 41 for a UK keyboard in the "uk.iso"
keymap gives '\' unshifted. This should be '`'.

>How-To-Repeat:

With a UK keyboard, execute:

kbdcontrol </dev/ttyv0 -l uk.iso

and then press the key next to the '1' key with '`' marked on it. This
will give a '\' instead.
