I can test patches and stuff. > The ofw_console(4) driver will use the keyboard and the > creator card via Open Firmware if you set "input-device" to "keyboard" > and "output-device" to "screen" in the Open Firmware boot monitor or Hmm, doesn't work here. I checked in OBP, input-device and output-device are set correctly. I attached a keyboard, and my monitor. The keyboard is recognized (to a certain degree) as I can power-on the machine from it. Keyboard type 5c. And I don't get console output on ttya (which I do get if there is no keyboard present). However, my monitor never receives a signal, it just blinks with "no signal" lamp. If it had received a signal (any signal) it would at least have complained that the signal was outside acceptable values. BTW, I can't find the man page for ofw_console(4). Do I need a newer version than 5.3-BETA7 to get it? -- Torfinn Ingolfsen, Norway
