On my keyboard the "normal" Delete key produces keycode 111, and the Del key on the numeric pad produces keycode 53. Are you using the numeric Del as your normal delete key? Then NumLock should be off, otherwise it'll produce a decimal point. > Any ideas how to fix this? new map?

When you install your kernel (which normally means copying bzImage to the /boot dir) you have to copy the System.map file (from the top dir of the kernel source) along with it, although this file is really only needed when you get oopses, so the kernel is able to tell in what function it occurs.
