Description Chris Pepper 2002-07-11 04:40:01 UTC
	The FAQ intro, as written, implies most FAQs are about FreeBSD.
	As written, the FAQ says a kernel rebuild is required to use a USB keyboard. Per John Baldwin, this is no longer true since 4.1 (per the USB mouse section, it may not be necessary since 4.0, but I'm believing John).

Fix: Apply patch below, to reword intro para, and mention that 4.1+ can load USB support automatically.
How-To-Repeat: 	Visit <http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/hardware.html#USBKBD>.

Apparently all the sections in the FAQ to which these patches apply were 
rewritten and updated a long time ago.  Sorry to have let this one languish.
