Hmm,

When this lockup happens if you try to switch between two vtys, does
the screen show the first vty (from which you are switching away) or
the second (to which you are switching to)?

When switching between two plain (non-graphical) vtys, the only
keyboard I/O taking place is for setting LEDs on the keyboard.

Keyboard I/O shouldn't loop inifinitely, as it will timeout if
necessary I/O operation cannot be completed for some reasons.

Would you boot this kernel by giving "boot -v" at the loader prompt,
and send me dmesg's output?
