it's sort of cosmic... the answer was 42.

I had to build and periodically execute "acpi_fakekey 42" to keep the
browser awake. 42 is the value for the left shift key... plus I get to
hear the keyboard tapping away by itself.

I would feel better with a hack-free way to do this. It won't work on
my n800 since acpi_fakekey can't find a keyboard. I'm not sure how to
change it to insert events into a different device or if there even is
a no-op I can insert there that won't get ignored.
