unsure if this is the appropriate forum fo this question, please direct
me to another list if need be.

a co-worker with an SMP system tried installing gentoo 1.4 a couple of
days ago; the experience was mostly fine except that whenever he tried
to boot an SMP kernel, his keyboard would no longer work (?)

any pointers to kernel config options that might work around this issue
would be greatly appreciated, i am pretty sure it is a quirk in the
apollo chipset that is causing this =)

the system is a p3 dual processor:

motherboard: super p3tdde
chipset: via apollo pro 266T
dual 1.7 GHZ fcpga penium III's
fastrak100 tx/lp series IDE raid card running RAID1 on two hdd's
super-old MS natural split keyboard w/ ps2 interface
1 GB RAM

he installed gentoo on an additional non-raid IDE drive.
