Hm. now that you mention it, that does seem probable. And sure enough.. looking closer, the typing stops when I unplug the usb wireless mouse/keyboard reciever.. it's just.. it has never happened before now.. and we've been using this setup for ages.. and I never had quite this success in keyboard transmitting range.. 10 meters at least and through at least four solid brick and steel walls.. hm.. i guess disabling usb-keyboards via devfs.rules or by removing the support from the kernel would solve the problem. But thanks very much. very much indeed :-D hm.. I wonder why I didn't at least consider the possibility of it being the wireless keyboard.. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
