[Eric-develop] Good && Bad

[Ismail PAZARBASI<paz...@my...>]

Guys,

   I started to use eric kernel in my home. I can boot and see 
Welcome message :) anyway, I inserted some code to the kernel.cpp to 
initialize the keyboard. but i think i don' t know the sequence or 
there is a problem.

   First, the void init_kbd() function:

void init_kbd()
{
  io kKbd(0x60);  // 0x64 is not working in my box
  kKbd.outportw(0xF4) // Enable && start scan, empty buffer, return 
ACK

}

I then put another function: the reset_kb function:

void reset_kb()
{
  io kKbd(0x60);
  kKbd.outportw(0xFF);
}

i inserted these functions just beneath the hello message. I can see 
lights on the keyboard are blinking. (reset_kbd() first, init_kbd() 
second)


I then used another function, the int check_kb():

int check_kb()
{
  io kKbd(0x60);
  return kKbd.inportb();
}

but this always returned 0xFF (Buffer Overflow). Even though I used 
inportw() it return 0xFF... Is there a problem with the sequence of 
functions I called?

I forgot to message the whole source while i was home.  i will post 
it tonight i think.

PS: I lit on scroll lock led :/ but cannot start scan the kbd. I 
forgot what else i would tell. anyway, please return about this.
