If you want your USB keyboard to work in loader you need to enable "USB Legacy" in the BIOS. > atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> port 0x64,0x60 irq 1 on acpi0 > I have the same log with or without : any keyboard(ps2 or usb), usb or apm > activating in the bios. FreeBSD can only handle input from one keyboard at a time. By default the first keyboard attached wins, which is atkbd. You have a few options: 1. Edit /boot/device.hints and remove the hint.atkbd.0.flags line, reboot, and unplug the PS/2 keyboard before the kernel starts. Unless your BIOS fakes up a keyboard it should keep atkbd0 from attaching and therefore let the USB keyboard take over kbd0. 2. Add a line to /etc/usbd.conf that calls kbdcontrol -k kbd1 < /dev/console when a USB keyboard is attached. This selects the USB keyboard as the active keyboard. If kbd1 goes away (by unplugging the USB keyboard) it'll fall back to the PS/2 keyboard. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
