I'm using the lastest <current> install iso I think its 2.6.12. It's an at keyboard. haven't tried apci=off, but I will. I'll check the legacy support for usb, but I don't use usb. What's funny, is that I've had no problems with the keyboard, but once I booted that fresh install, the keyboard wouldn't work with my other linux installs...very odd. I'm in a mess here, I hosed my main system with dist-upgrade ....;^)
