(Originally didnt response back to mailing list...) The keyboard works fine when I dont start X, single user mode or just at the console. I can crash the machine whenever I switch virtual consoles which is most not fun. Not sure if its strictly an X problem on not. My previous -current was before the radical changes so I might have something out of wack but not sure. I think I got everything in my kernel config file uptodate. steve On Sun, 30 Jul 2000 heistand@heistand.org wrote: > The problem I am seeing is that the keyboard isnt even seen. > Its useable up until about midway through the boot process, > then it goes dead/locks up.

Can you single-user boot and get the keyboard working? I am not clear if it's an X problem or a system problem. You said you updated your source tree yesterday. If that was from a recent build, then I don't know, but I'm very curious, just how old was your previous build? The config changed really radically maybe 2 months ago, so maybe your config file is hosed? > > steve > > > I have, like when I'm running tail on something, and then I try to ctrl-c > > out of it, the whole console locks solid, and I have to reboot.
