I have a compaq armada laptop that I have converted to a dual boot system.
Freebsd 4.2 boots fine with it.  The problem that I am having is when I am
in the office, I want to connect an external keyboard to it but use the
on-board keyboard when travelling.  I installed FreeBSD using the on-board
keyboard but when I connect the external keyboard to it, I get no response.
I also have windows running on it and can easily switch between keyboards.
Is there a setting or something that I need to change to get FreeBSD to
recognize and activate the external keyboard when it is attached?

TIA
Alan Gates
