of my three tower cases still linked by wires so i can "click-over" to each and use my one screen and keyboard, my server [ethic|ns1.thought.org] has a bad wire to my keyboard. so i really cannot do much on ethic.
i've crawled down under 8 or 9 times and messed with various wires. that was extremely hard as fruitless. (things were|everything WAS) working fine until i added my battery backup. the guy who helped me with that 700-pound beast must have gotten something mixed up. because of his age (70's) and fraility i don't want to ask him to crawl around under there (&c). the two boxes that are working are impossible for me to pull out and look at. hopefully there are a couple freebsd types who rely on kvm wires to do serious work and can give me some clues. tia, guys, gary ps: strange but true: if i boot into "3" safe-mode, the keyboard works. but then a get a storm of bad interupts on #11. if it =is= this irq=11 storm, then the problem might be bsd related. -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.83a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.org _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
