Hi !


We have two Dell PowerEdge 2950 which only have USB mouse & keyboard, 
therefore I'm using a USB to PS/2 converter to get the KVM switch to
work with the servers.

When I boot default FreeBSD-6.2 kernel then the system detects
the usb converter :

ukbd0: CHESEN PS2 to USB Converter, rev 1.10/0.10, addr 2, iclass 3/1
kbd2 at ukbd0
ums0: CHESEN PS2 to USB Converter, rev 1.10/0.10, addr 2, iclass 3/1
ums0: 5 buttons and Z dir.

If I build a new kernel with GENERIC configuration, then the converter
isn't detected and the keyboard doesn't work. :-(

root@hostname:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

Here is more information form "dmesg -a" :

And here is some from "usbdevs -v" :

   port 1 powered
   port 2 powered
   port 3 powered
   port 4 powered
  port 6 powered

The usb to ps/2 converter is on the /dev/usb3 port 5.


Is the support for this converter removed from the kernel or is
this a bug ?


Regards

Roar
