The following reply was made to PR kern/3067; it has been noted by GNATS.

The status ffffffff indicates timeout when reseting the keyboard. The keyboard reset routine waits upto one second, which apparently is too short for your keyboard... Timeout duration can be adjust by specifying the following options in the kernel configuration file: options "KBDIO_RESETDELAY=X" options "KBDIO_MAXWAIT=Y" The timeout value is X(msec)*Y, with 200(msec)*5 being the default. If you have another, working 2.2 box, compile a kernel in that box with increased values for these options, and try to load the kernel to your Vega 486 system. Kazu
