X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 01 Apr 2004 21:35:59 -0000 I have a client that has several dell machines, when he boots without a keyboard he gets: atkbdc0: at port 0x60,0x64 on isa0 but no: atkbd0: flags 0x1 irq 1 on atkbdc0 kbd0 at atkbd0 This used to work, then was broken by someone trying to "do the right thing". We need the keyboards to be hot swappable. I recommend that the next dork that breaks this should have to reenact the lye scene from Fight Club. No other OS has this problem. Also, breaking this in -stable is super lame, c'mon can't we do better? -- - Alfred Perlstein - Research Engineering Development Inc. - email: bright@mu.org cell: 408-480-4684
