 Hello,
 Is there anyone who has keyboard working on iBook G4 on kernel  2.6.18 ?
 Here is my BTS report:

Hi Emil,

Maybe it's related to this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/425072

Sincerely,

Yannick

PS: If someone in charge of the kernel is reading this list, it would be
kind to correct this little nasty bug easily fixable. :-)

My ibook  works fine with 2.6.20-1  home-compiled and I  have tried also
with a 2.6.21 (don't remember the  last number). If you like I will send
you the .config

 On non-working kernels I have less devices in /dev/input/.

If you really think it's the kernel's fault, it is probably better to 
write to the LKML then.

Yes I already done that. And there is nothing interesting in dmesg. It's almost
the same as on working kernel. 

lsmod output is more suspicious. I have the same modules however on non-working
kernel the Used By column in evdev shows 0. 

On non-working kernels I have less devices in /dev/input/.

Keyboard doesn't work even in single mode.

 ?

I do. But there's a but :)
The first time I upgraded to 2.6.21 from 2.6.18 I noticed a very very 
weird behaviour:

1) Boot 2.6.21
2) Try associating iBook with wireless network using networkmanager
3) Fail association (this happenes automagically, usually :D)
4) No keyboard!

So I reverted to 2.6.18 for a while, then I went back to 2.6.21 for some 
reason and I never looked back.

Thus the question is: if you boot in single mode (at yaboot, just add 
single to the name of the kernel you want to boot) does the keyboard 
work? If yes, something is broken later. Try loading one service at a 
time until you find the offending one.
