I have just spent a couple of hours debugging and documenting the problem and submitted a kernel patch: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/63171 But dammit, I've just discovered that the fix was posted already on 27th September last year: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/57273 To prevent further time wasting, can someone please commit one of these? (Both fix the rollover problem, but kern/63171 also fixes a pointer type mismatch problem) Thanks, Brian Candler. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Here's what I get if I compile in and turn on USB keyboard debugging in the kernel, and type "asd" as "a" down, "s" down, "a" up, "d" down: this generates "asds" on screen.

Example: Additional information: if I reboot my laptop into Windows 98 (forgot I had that partition!), the keyboard works properly with no rollover problem. So it looks suspiciously like FreeBSD is not initialising it properly or communicating correctly. W98 installed three default drivers (I think USB.INF, USBHID.INF and something else) when I first inserted it. There was no special driver disk which came with the keyboard. So I think it must be doing the "default" thing for a USB keyboard.
