Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Keyboard disables after system-up noises?

Lincoln:

Just to help us understand, at what point do you get this problem? Can 
you type 'root' at the login prompt? Can you get logged in?

Could it be a physical problem with your keyboard? Do you have another 
keyboard you could try? Is it a standard keyboard and/or did you set the 
keyboard type correctly in DL Setup? Is the keyboard plugged in 
correctly? :-) Is it USB keyboard? I have never tried USB keyboard with 
DL, I guess it should work fine but if you have PS/2 keyboard it would 
be worth trying that...

Alternatively, can you login remotely? If you chose to include SSHD in 
Setup/Services, and set up your ethernet card correctly, you should be 
able to log in remotely over a network - you would have to find out the 
ip address, your router's configuration web page can probably help with 
this.
