Description Baldur Gislason 2008-01-09 22:00:07 UTC
The USB controller of my new Dell Optiplex 755 seems to be very flaky under FreeBSD. The USB keyboard will randomly stop working, requiring me to unplug the keyboard and plug it back in. Using a different keyboard does not affect the issue.

Here is a dmesg showing the hardware of the machine.

How-To-Repeat: Use Dell Optiplex 755 with a USB keyboard (There is no controller for other types of keyboard) and at random the keyboard will become inoperable, often repeating whatever keypress I did last. This will continue after I unplug keyboard but the repeat will stop when I plug the keyboard back in, which is when the kernel realises that the keyboard is gone.
Comment 1 Baldur Gislason 2008-01-10 18:27:38 UTC
Some further diagnosis has concluded that this bug has something to do with
the legacy emulation of the USB keyboard, done by the BIOS and cannot be turned
off in the BIOS settings.
If I boot the computer without a keyboard attached and only attach a keyboard
after boot I don't seem to have any problems. Same if I install an additional
USB controller which the BIOS doesnt use.

Comment 2 Baldur Gislason 2008-02-04 15:30:52 UTC
A workaround for this issue is to compile kernel without
device          atkbdc          # AT keyboard controller
device          atkbd           # AT keyboard
device          psm             # PS/2 mouse

or otherwise disable the atkbd driver.
Since PS/2 emulation cannot be disabled in the BIOS and these machines
have no PS/2 ports.

Comment 3 rabe 2008-04-11 22:32:36 UTC
Use a custom kernel config for DELL Optiplex 755 (and maybe others):
-----------------------------
# Kernel-Config for Dell Optiplex 755 / amd64
  

include         GENERIC
ident           DELL755
  
nodevice          atkbdc          # AT keyboard controller
nodevice          atkbd           # AT keyboard
nodevice          psm             # PS/2 mouse
-----------------------------

There *should* be a facility to (temporary) disable specific hardware 
drivers or make them skip hardware-checks, maybe in /boot/loader.conf: 

atkbdc_enable="NO"
atkbdc_skip="YES"
atkbdc_disable="YES"
