OK, to whoever may concern... I found what was rising the error in question. In the BIOS of the HP Proliant Server The USB 2.0 --> i8042 Emulation was ENABLED DISABLING that, the problem went away. Note that NO USB keyboard had ever been plugged into the pc, nor any other kind of usb device Andrea -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Andrea Lanza [mailto:andrea.lanza@frameweb.it] Inviato: mercoledì 9 maggio 2007 13.00 A: John Andersen; opensuse@opensuse.org Oggetto: R: R: [opensuse] HW Problem ? Yes, I am sure, becouse looking back to the logs i found this problem arised immediately after installation. I installed this pc on last April 4, and at the end of install process (network install process, text mode installation) (after passing across all software updates) the pc entered runlevel 6 and reboot and then when restarted immediately showed this behaviour. I didn't note this (....) and I continued with installing this server (asterisk server) (pbx software) with no problem at all. Then I packed this pc and send it away. After about a week they were using this, they told me there are strnage noises in conversation. I investigate the problem and found this continuous reset or similar, and I am thinking about the fact that they can lower the qaulity of the phones. I have a Digium PRI card in it to connect to PSTN, but I inserted the card after a week I installed the PC (on 11 Apr (Ester in the middle) ) and the problem was ALREADY present The keyboard I used to install is here and they are using another keyboard there. Moreover, also unplagging the keyboard has no effect. I also tried to remove kernel-smp and install kernel-default (recompiling asterisk and so on..) with no difference, as no difference are shown starting in failsafe. So the problem could be the keyboard controller on the pc... anyway I will have back the pc in my hands on Friday morning (I prepared a new one, with the same Suse 10.1 O.S. and software and it works perfectly.. but it is not an HP, it is a different brand (assembled) PC , with 1 IDE HD (HP has 2 SATA disk, with mirroring software configured ) Thanks again for your interest Andrea -----Messaggio originale----- Da: John Andersen [mailto:jsa@pen.homeip.net] Inviato: martedì 8 maggio 2007 22.02 A: opensuse@opensuse.org Cc: Andrea Lanza Oggetto: Re: R: [opensuse] HW Problem ?

I will try opensuse 10.2. Also disconnecting any keyboard, apart from changing keyboard, the problem is still there (also with unplagged keyboard)
Thanks,

Ok, since you stated the machine is no where near you I can safely ask this question without fear of insulting your intelligence..... Are you sure the people near the machine have the keyboard plugged in the correct place? This sounds more an more like the mouse is in the keyboard plug and vise versa. There is no way you should be getting keyboard interrupts with the keyboard unplugged. You might see such a thing with a totally FooBar acpi setup, and could try booting with acpi off just to test this. (Or maybe it is off in the bios and needs to be turned on.) -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
