If you remove the 'flags 0x1' bit from the atkbd0 line in the kernel config file and re-compile it will work any time.
At least it does on my hardware..

I think it means that it re-polls for the keyboard at an hardware interrupt instead of *just* at boot..  But I could be wrong.

Subject: Keyboard question


Hello, quick question...

After I boot up my server, sometimes I would like to hook up a keyboard
and monitor to run some commands.  However the keyboard will not work
unless it was booted with it connected, and I would rather not leave it
this way in the rack.

Is this a problem with the keyboard, the mobo, or FreeBSD?
Or a combination of the above?

I'm using FreeBSD 4.6.2, Intel L440GX+ mobo, Logitech 'deluxe access'
keyboard (ps/2 connector)

Thanks,
Skye

PS: I'm using memtest86 to do some burn-in testing, _great_ program
