Hi,

        I'm having a mysterious problem with my keyboard locking up.  I'm
not quite sure if this is a hardware problem or a software problem.  I'm
using 2.2.6-RELEASE, on a Dell Poweredge 2300 (PII-233, 64Mb, 9GB).

        When this happens, I no keyobard at all.  I have to telnet in from
another machine and do a su root -c 'halt' and reboot it.  The funny thing
is that it won't start the halt process UNTIL I hit a key on the CONSOLE!
Wierd, huh?

        Can anyone offer any insights to wither or not this is a FreeBSD
(Kernel?) problem, or a hardware issue; cause I'm about clueless at this
point.

Brian
