Hi, I have some problems with FreeBSD 2.2.1-R and XFree86 3.2. The PC is an old EISA bus 486DX-33, only ISA cards installed Trident TVGA8900D, NE2000 clone, 2 serial, 1 modem, 420MB IDE HDD. FreeBSD runs just fine, have built a custom kernel, no problems. When X is started via startx, the standard X windows and xclock are displayed, mouse movement is just fine. Unfortunately no keyboard input is accepted and no errors are generated. The machine requires a reset and reboot. This problem occurs with a custom kernel and the GENERIC kernel and also with XFree86 3.1.2 and 3.2. It seems to have something to do with syscons since a similar problem occus if I configure a keymap in /etc/sysconfig. The PC boots with no errors but stops at the login prompt and no keyboard input is accepted. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Dave
