All keys except for Caps lock and num lock seem to work properly. The combination Control-Z is recognized correctly. Also Shift + key gives the correct shift to upper case on both the letters and the numbers. 2. Holding down a letter key causes the letter to repeat as expected. 3. The numeric keypad and the arrow keys work as expected. 4. When you push caps lock, the corresponding light on the keyboard goes on for about 1 second, goes off, goes on again, goes off again and stays off. The num lock light does the same thing. 5. The system boots up with num lock on. If you push the num lock key, the corresponding light goes off and stays off. In both cases 4 and 5, the keyboard is disabled -- I cannot find any key combination that does anything. This includes control-alt-delete. The only fix is to push the power button. The same system works ok with Win XP. (The system is dual-boot). I have upgraded the BIOS firmware from A01 to A02. No change. Finally, it looks like Debian Linux has some problems with the same hardware. Are these troubles related? ------------------------------------------------------------------- At 03:49 AM 2/25/2009, gavin@FreeBSD.org wrote: >Synopsis: [ukbd] Keyboard failure USB keyboard DELL 760 > >State-Changed-From-To: feedback->open >State-Changed-By: gavin >State-Changed-When: Wed Feb 25 10:49:12 UTC 2009 >State-Changed-Why: >Feedback received, thanks! > >http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=132066 Judah Levine Time and Frequency Division NIST Boulder
