I've installed FreeBSD 6.1 release on a Tyan K8SR motherboard and then updated to RELENG_6. I've installed the Xorg 6.9.0 port and fired up the server where the graphics are from the builtin ATI Rage chip. Everything comes up as expected and the ps/2 mouse works. However, the keyboard is dead. I can get an xterm up, give it focus, but typing yields nothing. Killing X reveals a bunch of gibberish on the console (ie., extended ascii characters). I have tried 2 different ps/2 keyboards and two different ps/2 mice. I've enable/disabled the kbdmux and I've set atkbd flags in /boot/device.hints. Nothing has given me a working keyboard. I've also played with numerous xorg.conf files trying to isolate the problem. I'm stuck. Anyone seen this type of problem? -- Steve
