Bug report: 2.5.50 input + fbdev api

[Alastair M. <mck...@de...>]

Hi,=20

A bug report against 2.5.50 + fbdev API, as posted to list:

Dell Dimension 4500, with USB keyboard (Sun type 5), ATI 128 card.
With just a USB keyboard, no AT keyboard attached, I get unknown
scancode errors from atkbd.c as keys are pressed.
(USB compiled into kernel)

With both USB & AT keyboard, it freezes: keys don't work.

(Can debug further as required).

He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from
oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that
will reach to himself.

Can you try out 2.5.51 now that it is out and includes my latest fbdev
work. Try it and if you have trouble could you post your .config file.

You need to load the USB HCI module, either usb-uhci or usb-ohci.
