If I don't start xdm during the bootprocess, but let it boot all the way, THEN login as root and starts xdm manually, then it always works fine. You could try this. When booting on batteries, the sys/i386/cpufreq/est.c cannot determine the speed, and my 1700Mhz Centrino becomes a 596Mhz, with speedstepping down to 74Mhz. Maybe this affects timing somewhere, which causes the keyboardproblem. -- Hilsen Lennart.Sorth@uni-c.dk
