Hi, The problem is not in the USB subsystem. Last time I looked into this, the problem was that syscons was going in a terrible polling loop, leaving no CPU for other subsystems. Does the mountroot prompt work? Polling for characters during early boot is a special mode of operation for the UKBD driver and it might conflict if there are multiple threads trying to get characters from the keyboard. hw.usb.ukbd.debug=15 Might give you some clues. You might need to hack this into the ukbd.c driver when building the kernel. --HPS -----Original message----- > From:perox@freenet.de <mailto:perox@freenet.de> <perox@freenet.de <mailto:perox@freenet.de> > > Sent: Saturday 1st February 2014 13:10 > To: freebsd-usb@freebsd.org <mailto:freebsd-usb@freebsd.org> > Subject: Entering password at GELI prompt using USB keyboard > > Hello, > > I have been encountering this problem for almost a year now and I'd really like > help fixing it.
