Hmm This one is intresting.....
I think it should be done with-in the kernel..
I took a look in the kernel config, but you only can select other keyboards
... It doesn't seem to be able to not support "normal" keyboards.

I also have "serial console only"  systems (via epia) and keyboard support
is on, but I'm not using it..
