Description leon2k 2001-03-19 05:20:03 UTC
Did a 4.2-RELEASE setup, but the screen just hangs when the setup menu
is displayed. All keyboard functionality is gone.

After changing the keyboard (which was a Mitsubishi Diamond touch) to
a Logitech or MS keyboard and restarted the installation, the keyboard
worked fine.

Thought that the problem was 4.2-RELEASE related so built a 4-STABLE
environment and booted the machine with the Diamond keyboard. Again the
keyboard hung (got the login prompt and that was all). Later, tried
booting with a MS and Logitech keyboard(s), and successful.

From what I observe, there may be issues related to the Diamond keyboard
and FreeBSD keyboard driver, since a Logitech or MS keyboard worked
flawlessly. The same system, with the Diamond kb, installed and ran
3.x just fine but for some reason hangs on a 4.x tree.

Fix: 

Don't use a Diamond keyboard with an Asus CUSL2-C motherboard with FreeBSD
4. Logitech and MS work fine though.

Does this problem still occur with more recent releases?
