Hi, I'm new to this list and to bug reporting in general, so I hope I get your help to do things right. As a long time happy FreeBSD user, I still don't know how to do a correct bug report. Why? Be- cause I newer had to write one. Honestly. - 1 - Since I upgraded to FreeBSD 7 (from my previous production system running 5.4), I have problems with a Sun Type 6 USB keyboard and mouse. On every other FreeBSD installation (5.X, 6.X), detection works as intended, but on 7.0 it doesn't. I may explain: After system startup has ended, the USB keyboard is not accessible. After a few seconds (5 up to 10), the kernel reports ums0: <vendor 0x0430 product 0x0100, class 0/0, rev 1.00/1.02, addr 2> on uhub1 ums0: 3 buttons. ukbd0: <vendor 0x0430 product 0x0005, class 0/0, rev 1.00/1.02, addr 3> on uhub1 kbd2 at ukbd0 and mouse and keyboard work as intended. But why the vendor and product numbers instead of the correct names? As I mentioned, it worked before for many years. I read up the corresponding files in the /usr/src tree segment, the needed information seems to be present in the file named /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs. It does not work with the generic kernel AND a custom kernel (I usually build kernels according to actual hardware presence). While this problem does not have a big impact, it's strange to see something stopping working that has worked many years before... - 2 - Another problem I did encounter is related to language settings done in the kernel configuration. I have the following settings: options ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP makeoptions ATKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=german.iso options UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP makeoptions UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=german.iso options SC_DFLT_FONT makeoptions SC_DFLT_FONT=iso They do not take effect when the kernel is loaded. The (english) standard keyboard still remains. Thanks for help! Explaination is welcome.home | help
