Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 X-Operating-System: Debian GNU/Linux 2.0 X-Mailer: mutt 0.93.2i/OfflineMailer 0.3 From: "K. Arun" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I've been running FreeBSD 2.2.8 for about three weeks now. I've set it up to boot straight into a wdm login. At times the keyboard simply freezes (under both fvwm2 and WM), and no input is accepted. None of the Lock (caps,num, etc.) work either. Since I can't switch to a virtual terminal I'm generally forced to hit the reset button. The problem is not readily reproducible, it generally happens within ten minutes of my logging in and starting the window manager. It happens with XKB (what is it ?) enabled and disabled. Mouse clicks still work fine. I'm able to use menus and buttons, but no text input anywhere is allowed. I haven't really checked if this is a consequence of my booting straight into X (wdm). I don't recall such a problem when starting X from the console. What am I missing ? Thanks. - àrun -- Does the name Pavlov ring a bell ? -- Please Cc: replies to me. Thank you.
