Debian Sarge USB only


I got a Dell OptiPlex 210L which has only USB keyboard and mouse, no PS/2 at all. Trying to get the netinstall 3.1r2 to reconize the keyboard at least, I can type in linux26 at boot, since 2.6 kernel handles USB better but once it gets to language select it won't respond to any keyboard input. Really, want to replace FC5, since it isn't that great for anything server related, seems less stable as well.

Thanks,
Xorgroth

Nevermind, just went ahead and installed Ubuntu server, hopefully Etch will solve the USB only problem soon.
