Hi: Thanks for your reply. I know that FreeBSD developers are busy people and give up precious time for FreeBSD development. I respect that a great deal, and appreciate the developers taking the time to help. I also understand that the time constraints require that users spend some time looking into problems on their own. I produced a complete system configuration that may help to track down what is going on with my Acer Aspire USB keyboard (see below). I may not be the best qualified to render an opinion, but I have noticed that my keyboard uses IRQ 1 and 12, and I/O ports: 0060h and 0064h, while FreeBSD reserves IRQ 12 and I/O port 0060 fro the PS/2 mouse. I'm not sure exactly how devices map to resources. Is there a coupling of IRQ and I/O port? If so, is my system using (IRQ,I/O port) pairs: (1,0060h) and (IRQ 12,0064h)? Since FeeBSD uses (12,0060h) for the PS/2 mouse, there could be a mismatch. Another possible conflict may be on IRQ 11. FreeBSD assigns this to the Adaptec SCSI controller while my system uses this for the PCI to USB Universal Host Controller. As described in the HARDWARE.TXT file in the installation (snapshot) directory, userconfig is supposed to provide an opportunity to clear up any such conflicts but my system is unusable as soon as the kernel is booted (which occurs just before userconfig). However, the boot floppy kernel is GENERIC, so perhaps it is subsceptable to a device conflict before such a conflict can be resolved by the user. One other clue: the floppy drive light remains on while the system is unusable. Could this indicate a system problem instead of a keyboard problem? ************ SYSTEM SUMMARY ************** Windows version: 4.10.1998 Computer Name: Acer System BUS Type: ISA BIOS Name: Acer BIOS Date: 04/01/98 BIOS Version: ACR8EP6C 450V3.2 Machine Type: IBM PC/AT Processor Vendor: GenuineIntel Processor Type: Pentiumฎ II Processor Math C0-processor: Not Present Registered Owner: Registered Company: ************** IRQ SUMMARY ************** IRQ Usage Summary: 00 System timer 01 Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural Keyboard 02 Programmable interrupt controller 03 Communications Port (COM2) 04 Communications Port (COM1) 05 ESS Solo-1 SoundBlaster Compatible (WDM) 05 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering 05 ESS Solo-1 PCI AudioDrive (WDM) 06 Standard Floppy Disk Controller 07 Printer Port (LPT1) 08 System CMOS/real time clock 09 SCI IRQ used by ACPI bus 09 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering 09 Acer PCI Modem Enumerator 09 Acer 56K DataFax PCI Modem 09 XPERT 98 (English) 10 3com Fast EtherLink XL 10.100Mb TX Ethernet NIC (3C905B-TX) 10 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering 11 ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering 11 Intel 82371AB/EB PCI to USB Universal Host Controller 12 Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural Keyboard 13 Numeric data processor 14 Primary IDE controller (dual fifo) 14 Intel 82371AB/EB PCI Bus Master IDE Controller 15 Intel 82371AB/EB PCI Bus Master IDE Controller 15 Secondary IDE Controller (dual fifo) ************* IO PORT SUMMARY ************* I/O Port Usage Summary: 0000h-000Fh Direct memory access controller 0020h-0021h Programmable interrupt controller 0040h-0043h System timer 0060h-0060h Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural Keyboard 0061h-0061h System speaker 0064h-0064h Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural Keyboard 0070h-0073h System CMOS/real time clock 0081h-008Fh Direct memory access controller 00A0h-00A1h Programmable interrupt controller 00C0h-00DFh Direct memory access controller 00F0h-00FFh Numeric data processor 0170h-0177h Secondary IDE controller (dual fifo) 0170h-0177h Intel 82371AB/EB PCI Bus Master IDE Controller 01F0h-01F7h -
