I don't mind having USB keyboard detection in there, but it should not go and disable the main keyboard if the main keyboard doesn't happen to be plugged in. This is like the fifth person who has gotten smacked by that. It's *really* annoying to have all of one's rack mount machines suddenly stop accepting a keyboard being plugged in after an upgrade. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
