I did everything as I supposed to do, chained my new handler to the old
one and all, and it works, except for a little problem.
After about ten key presses that works fine, the keyboard buffer seems
to be full, and it's beeping me whenever I press a key. Does anyone know
how to fix it(clean the buffer or something)?

Does anyone knows what "outportb(0x20,0x20)" is for? I just ripped that
part from someone else's handler, and it doesn't seem to do anything!

And yet another strange thing I noticed, I can use int 9 OR int 8! for
some strange reason, both of them seem to work! how can that be?
