I'm running into a roadblock, though: although the keyboard works fine all the way through the kernel configuration part at the beginning (moving around with arrow keys, deleting modules, saving, etc.), the keymap seems to get corrupted as soon as I get to the main menu. That is, most keys don't work at all. I *think* that pressing "J" actually gets "Enter". "K" gets "X" (I think). No keycode seems to correspond to the key actually being pressed. Again, the keyboard works perfectly *before* getting to the main menu, and I've had Linux installed and running on it with no apparent idiosyncracies before. Any ideas of what might be going wrong? =2D-=20 Kirk Strauser --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQA/IZa05sRg+Y0CpvERAm1mAJ9WoKXXS/UJXBJ8L7bf7c4HBgHWMQCgl4E2 ooSQfWtxigg4Z+mK+EFJrLI= =f0IW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
