Ok, I read your reply and got all excited, but this is what I got:

$ kbdcontrol -k /dev/kbd0
kbdcontrol: cannot open /dev/kbd0: Device not configured

same thing for /dev/kbd1

Here's what's in dmesg.

$ dmesg | grep kb
atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> at port 0x60,0x64 on isa0

Anything else worth trying here?

TIA,

-Troy
