Hi folks I have the mainboard AU13 with NForce2 chipset, installed suse pro 8.2 with latest kernel from suse's update site.
My keyboard and mouse are both USB interface, which made me very frustrated. At first when installing the computer hangs as soon as starting hardware probing, so I borrowed a PS2 keyboard and disabled USB controller in BIOS to install it. But when I reenabled USB, it still booted without probing USB device. so I after I added the line "alias usb-interface usb-ohci" in /etc/modules.conf, everytime I "modprobe usb-ohci", the system hangs and even keyboard did not work.
The USB keyboard cannot even work in grub that I cannot choose to boot windows with this keyboard.
Try disabling acpi. Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add "acpi=off" to the "kernel" line. Reboot and see if that works.
