I have a USB keyboard (Logitech iTouch) connected to an SBC MediaGX (a Cyrix MediaGX oneboard machine) running debian/testing (that's sid, I believe), installed within the previous two weeks. Kernel is 2.4.22 with no patches and no USB support.
I installed X and KDE yesterday, and everything runs fine. There's just one problem: When X starts up (both when I run kdm and just simple "X"), the keyboard stops responding. Not even "ctrl-shift-backspace" works. In KDM, the cursor blinks, so X apparently doesn't hang. Also, if I log in from another computer via ssh I can safely terminate (kill) the KDM or X process, and once I'm back in text-mode, the keyboard responds perfectly again. I've only seen a related problem reported one other place (<http://www.linux.net.nz/lists/NZLUG/2002/08/1241.html> - the posting refers to the keyboard not working during installation, which in SUSE 8 normally means X), and there was no answer to that posting. (As a footnote: I'd like to keep the "BIOS legacy keyboard" option activated, as I need it to manipulate the BIOS settings, and attaching a PS/2 keyboard involves dismantling the machine. Just opting for a normal USB HID solution is therefore not an option.) -- Jørgen H.
