Subject:   PS/2 mouse problem with 440BX chipset?

There recently was a report that the PS/2 mouse is not recognized
on a 440BX-based motherboard.  The problem was reported with
2.2.7-RELEASE, but 3.0-CURRENT may have the same difficulty (because
the PS/2 mouse driver is almost identical in both versions).

When you enable the psm driver and boot the kernel, giving -v option
at the "boot:" prompt, you may see:

psm0: current command byte:0047
kbdio: TEST_AUX_PORT status:00fa
                            ~~~~
kbdio: DIAGNOSE status:0055
kbdio: TEST_KBD_PORT status:00fa
                            ~~~~
psm: keyboard port failed.
psm0: the aux port is not functioning (250).
psm0 not found at 0x60

I don't know if this problem is present in 440BX-based system in general,
or it is peculiar to this specific motherboard.

Please contact me if you have a 440BX-based system and tell me if you 
have the same problem or not.

Thank you
Kazu
