Thanks in advance for any help I reported problems following an upgrade ro 4.3.5 in a previous thread: kde4 Upgrade to 4.3.5 -problems The major problem was solved BUT I am now left without a working keyboard although the mouse works. After kde4 loaded with usual plasmas but no keyboard input was possible despite the following entries in /etc/rc.conf hald_enable="YES" dbus_enable="YES" I would experiment so I plugged in an another keyboard (this time on the USB bus). Tested that that worked on a normal console and then % startx produced a total system crash! I removed the additional keyboard, & after booting to single user mode and running fsck tried startx again. Kde started fine. However still no keyboard function. Logged out and tried % startx again -- system crashed again!!!. So the crash does not seem to have anything to do with the second keyboard but a lot to do with logging out of X and trying to log in again. Does anyone have any clue here? Again this is freebsd 7.2 p3 amd64 on intel quad core. Thanks in advance David
