I see... Have you tried compiling i8042, atkbd and psmouse as modules and adjusting the init scripts so they are all loaded after USB drivers are loaded - does it also cause lock up on reboot? I wonder if it is usb-handoff probem or it is a bigger problem with USB on your Toshiba. -- Dmitry - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
