Actually it is no hung since it lets you use num and caps lock and you can see light go on-off. It is a USB keyboard but no problem at all with 4.10 and 5.2.1 It is an AMD Athlon 2500 with Asus a7v333 and Msi geforce 5200.

I have to mention that it actually doesn’t let = you navigate through sysinstall menus

This means we can plug PS/2 keyboards into servers after boot, but means that USB keyboards don't work. Once you're in multi-user mode, we have a devd.conf entry that causes the system to use the USB keyboard when it is plugged in, but that doesn't help with sysinstall. I've got a patch that should cause the CDs to work with USB keyboards by not attaching the atkbd device if there is no PS/2 keyboard. There's a test ISO at: http://people.freebsd.org/~brooks/6.0-CURRENT-i386-bootonly.iso.bz2 If you could try it out and report back that would be helpful. It doesn't contain install files because I built it at home where I'm stuck behind a 144k link. -- Brooks From: Ara Avvali To: Brooks Davis , freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/71443: [usb] usb keyboard not detected on 5.3 Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 18:10:20 -0400 thank you for help.

Thank you. Let me know if I can help.
