Hello fellow Compaq N610c users,

when booting my N610c with an external keyboard, I'd see keyboard lights flash
and keyboards worked at boot prompt but after booting finished neither the 
integratd kbd or the external kbd would work,

At boot up would see:

atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> port 0x64,0x60 irq 1 on acpi0
atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> flags 0x1 irq 1 on atkbdc0
device_probe_and_attach: atkbd0 attach returned 6

This can be fixed by changing /boot/device.hints
hint.atkbd.0.flags="0x1"
to
hint.atkbd.0.flags="0x3"

Now both keyboards work fine.

Slowly getting there!

ps still waiting for that unexpected email explaining how to get
   syspension/resumption to work correctly and to eliminate loss
   of sync when switching from text to graphics mode.
