I have a fairly reproduceable problem with a new Dell PowerEdge 2650: After the machine has booted in a headless state (no keyboard or monitor) and then one inserts a keyboard into either the front or rear PS/2 plugs, there is no communication input from the keyboard to the server. The monitor/VGA port communication is fine.
I believe the keyboard repsonse is _normal_ if the keyboard is plugged in while the machine is powering up. Has anyone else experienced this problem? And if so how was the issue resolved? Here is a copy of dmesg output from the machine: Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project.
