Sure:

	KVM users heads up: In order to support USB keyboards
	the generic kernel does not install an atkbd0 driver
	if no keyboard is detected. Some KVMs fail to sufficiently
	emulate a keyboard, causing the system to fail to detect a
	keyboard if the system is not currently selected on the KVM
	switch. This can be avoided by removing the 'flags 0x1'
	portion in the atkbd0 line of the kernel configuration file,
	then building and installing a new kernel.
	
Non-native speaker, so feel free to clean if felt necessary.

Thanks

Gerd
