Re: [Trinux-talk] USB Keyboard in Trinux

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

Ah, Microsoft Natural keyboard's are great. Using one right now with
Linux. First the good news -- it should work if you use a floppy since it
will require adding the usb package to the boot floppy. The bad news, you
won't be able to boot from the CD-ROM. You still might be able to load the
packages off the CD-ROM but network packaging loading will be
easier/faster.

The first step will be to get the keyboard detected and working (which
will require a few modifications to the usb package but shouldn't be hard
and I'm working on now). I should be able to put out floppy boot image
tonight and you (or anyone else) can test it on their system to make sure
it works with their USB chipset.
