My Wheel mouse (PS/2) works fine. In the beginning of the RedHat 9 installation,
hardware probe detects this mouse , monitor and graphics card. But it does not detect
the USB keyboard. Also during installation, I do not get any keyboard
configuration screens
........ I get the mouse configuration screen where I select wheel mouse
(ps/2) as detected earlier.
I somehow managed to install RedHat using another serial keyboard which I got from office.
I plugged in the USB keyboard and rebooted , all the USB initializations are done during bootup,
ie HID, keyboard etc, but I get the message "usb_control/blk_msg : timeout" What is the meaning of this message ? Is this the reason why my keyboard does not work ? How do I fix this ? I looked into the BIOS settings and saw "Legacy USB keyboard : ENABLE" Other than this
there is no other USB option. I have a Compaq Presario 5000 and the system properties says "HID keyboard device" - working properly. Also this same USB keyboard works fine with RedHat 6.0 which I had installed earlier ?
Is there some way of configuring / setting up the USB keyboard after I reboot the system with a serial keyboard ? ie running kudzu or something ? NOTE : running kudzu on RedHat 9.0 hangs the system. What is the alternative for kudzu ?
Thanks,
