hi,
i am running 2.5 kernels, 2.5.70 right now and i always have this
keyboard problem: when booting, usb kbd and a ps/2 kbd gets installed.
but when i first try to use them, one keypress gives me 5+ chars.
so would have to login with "rrrrrooooooootttttt" as user name.
when i unplug/replug say the usb kbd, the usb kbd is working right,
while the ps/2 kbd is still behaving this weird. i have to unplug/replug
the ps/2 kbd too.
i *think* i read this thing in a FAQ already but i couldn't remember.
kernelnewbies.org or the lk-ml FAQ gave nothin, a chat on #kernelnewbies
made me believe something very strange is going on.
for clarification i want to repeat the problem in another way:
- one ps/2 keyboard *and* one usb keyboard is plugged into the PC (yes,
i have _2_ kbds)
- ps/2 and usb kbd support is compile statically into the kernel:
CONFIG_SERIO
CONFIG_SERIO_I8042
CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD
CONFIG_KEYBOARD_ATKBD
CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD
CONFIG_USB_KBD
- the computer boots up, the kbd driver get loaded, i sit in front of
some login prompt (X or console)
- the usb kbd is only writing ttthhhiiiissss way.
- i try the ps/2 kbd, it is also writing only ttthhhhiiiisss way.
(i was able to write "root" in a sane way, but the password.....)
- i unplug the usb kbd and replug it --> i can use the usb kbd.
- the ps/2 is still behaving this weird, so i have to unplug/replug the
ps/2 kbd to use it, too.
i noticed the problem once with 2.5.65(?) on linux/alpha, with a single
ps/2 kbd connected. but the problem disappeared somehow.
Thank you for any hints,
Christian.
Same here, well.
I use 2.5.70-mm3 and my PS2 Keyboard once swichted TO BIG CHARS. I
unplugged/plugged and it went complete mad, sound began too loop. I
unplugged and replugged, after a while it worked again...
Sometime a key is very fast repeated 10 to 20 times after pressed only
one.
On the other side, everything seems to be smooth and running fine :)

I have seen this on one of two systems connected to a 4-port KVM
switch. I started seeing it in 2.5.68 or 2.5.69. The other system has
not demonstrated the super-fast repeat.

I see this on my ibm thinkpad T20 with 2.5.69. I manually raised my
kbdrate(1) settings and that helps. However when switching between X
and text-consoles it gets worse after a while.

Hi!
I saw a problem with the keyboard and I want to tell my story.
Motherboards are EPOX with an Nvidia TNT2 card.
2 computers - not the same hard configuration.
>From time to time the keyboard goes crazy: I press A it gives me z, I
press ENTER it gives me n and so on.
After a while or with a reset, the problem is gone.
What can this be?
Thanks!

Hi !
In the same thread : slight trouble with 2.5.70 / 2.4.19
Using 2.5.70 -> no problem
I've got to reboot twice to switch back to 2.4.19 or I loose my keyboard...
Regards,
Fabian
