Does anyone have any ideas or clues as to what is going wrong here? Or what I can do to maybe try to pinpoint the problem so I can raise it as a bug.. or fix the problem (if it's a problem on my system and not a bug)?? Is there any extra info I can provide to help diagnose the problem?
More info might help... Have you tried other keyboards? (I know it sucks to go give up what you are used to). Is that a ps2 keyboard or a USB? If you ssh into the machine from another station does it behave ok? How old is the Bios? In my machine, I had to force it to use acpi because the bios was just before the 2000 cut-off date. I needed to use "acpi=force" on the boot prompt in order to get all of the features of this machine to work. In the past, I've had problems with usb performance when acpi was not invoked, which is why I asked if the kb was usb. Oh, and Yes, It works for me.... I know that doesn't help, but I have no problem with the SMP kernel, and I've used the SMP versions since SuSE 7.3. Sorry, had to mention it. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
