It sounds to me as if you have not succeeded in having the sys-usb proxy mouse and keyboard to dom0. I think that was covered in the video where he sets the policy to "allow" - obviously you didn't follow this step. If you think you DID do this, try unplugging and replugging the mouse and keyboard to see if you can get one or other working. If you just get that prompt, you didn't configure policy correctly. You don't say why a PS2 keyboard doesn't work - it should. Do you get any response to key presses? (Lights coming on etc?) I don't know what level of competence in Linux you have, (as opposed to Qubes). You could boot from a live usb, and stop sys-usb from starting: this would at least allow you back in and you would be able to configure the box correctly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
