Well, it sounds funny, but it seems to be fixed by plugging in keyboard/mouse (both USB) into the USB ports on mobo - not as the scientist in Mainz did: into the TFT's USB hub. This seems to be an issue. Fridey last week, this machine ran head- and keyboardless until I did some stupid misconfigurations in the kernel. That's it ... Sorry Oliver P.S. Why is this behaviour so lethal to the kernel? Donald J. O'Neill wrote: > On Monday 28 February 2005 11:06 am, Robert Watson wrote: > >>On Mon, 28 Feb 2005, O.
