I use this option. I need it to use the keyboard with the GRUB menu. But when Linux starts up, it turns the BIOS's USB keyboard support off so it can use its own USB handlers. So I need to have some USB keyboard support in the kernel, either compiled in or as a module. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
