I know I got to that problem a while ago at the 21C3. My keyboard adaptor (actually mist's) was not recognised. Mist told me it had worked when the SI driver was still hardcoded to accept a keyboard at some port, but it didn't work any more. I don't think I have time to check it out this week. The fact that the num and caps lights work does not need to mean anything, don't know if they are controlled by the kernel or the hardware. Rob -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: gc-...@li...

Onderwerp: [Gc-linux-devel] Successful boot via Max Drive Pro; keyboard not working Hi Folks First, a bit of news: Linux boots successfully when loaded via the Max Drive Pro. Datel finally got round to releasing their gizmo (I got mine about a week ago) and almost the first time I tried it the kernel booted, found my NFS server and made it to the Debian login prompt on my UK (PAL) 'Cube. Second, a bit of a problem: I have a (very cheap) keyboard adaptor I bought on Lik-sang at the same time I bought my BBA. It is a two-in-one device that can either connect a PS/2 keyboard or a Playstation controller. The kernel correctly identified the peripherals in the boot messages (2 controllers, unused, keyboard) but unfortunately the keyboard just didn't seem to work (though caps lock and num lock lights do come on and off when I press those buttons). So a variety of crack-pot questions: - has anyone had their Lik-sang 2-in-1 adaptor work on gc-linux? (and in what socket) - has anyone had their keyboard work after booting via a Max drive? (a long shot given how rare those things are) - does anyone know of any bare machine .dol programs that use the keyboard so I might be able to prove the hardware does work? - could someone with a keyboard and SDLoad unplug their BBA and let me know if <Shift-PgUp> gets the kernel to scroll up from the 'Looking for RPC ... messages'? (I want to debug the keyboard thing before laying a network cable down to the living room so I'd like to know how to tell when I've got it working!) Unless someone has a better suggestion I guess I need to go and add lots of printk's to the keyboard driver (and any lower-level drivers) to figure out what might have gone wrong. -- Daniel Thompson <gc-...@re...> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
