Comment (by wmb at firmworks.com):
I have an educated guess about what might be causing this problem,
especially the part about crashing if you press the game key before the
power button.
I suspect that the code that generates "keyboard events" from game keys
might be trying to add events to a queue before the queue has been
initialized. That might be overwriting other parts of system memory.
I think that game keys should wait until the first keyboard reset command
before generating events.
