Not necessary: I see the device identified by the console
messages correcty as a "USB keyboard".  But banging at the USB
keyboard adds nothing to the screen ouput (not even garbage
characters).  The PS/2 keyboard is okay.  So is my USB mouse
(under X).

I have the "hotplug" package installed (in in its default setup).
Could this be a problem?  I'm thinking maybe I'm having a module
loading order problem (this was certainly the case with my TV
tuner card under linux 2.6).  So I'm looking to clone the
/etc/modules or /etc/hotplug* of someone with a successful linux
2.6 + USB keyboard setup.
