------- Comment #12 from robin.bankh...@gmail.com  2009-02-01 07:29 -------
I'm not sure if I went about this right, but I tried my no-PS/2 idea.  All I
could actually disable was "Mice", as the generic keyboard and mouse support
items are hard-selected.  Generic input device support is selected by VT which
is in turn selected by "!S390 && EMBEDDED" (even though I'm manifestly not
configged for either of these) - and turning off VT is not something I'd do
without further advice anyway...

Anyway, the result of this change is that the boot hangs completely (at a much
earlier stage), and is not responsive to keyboard activity even though I don't
think my keyboard was disabled.  Magic SysReq had no effect either, so I had to
do a hard poweroff.  All in all this doesn't seem like a plan of attack that's
going to get us very far, but I'm willing to keep at it if anyone can advise
further on how to get useful results. NB: I don't have any non-PS/2 input
devices, unfortunately.

I'd really like to make some headway on this, and will do whatever I can to get
there, as I've just learned that the newer kernels may improve the (currently
desperate) Intel graphics performance.
