I am glad, my RPi keyboard/mouse problems indirectly caused some very nice discussions and debugging! Thanks to you and Richard! I finally got a powered USB hub today, but I forgot my SD Card at work. (Bakul: I could bootup Rasbian on my hardware.) I will try out my RPi though I don't expect any miracles. I don't have any more keyboard/mouse to try -- which means, this is more or less a dead end for me at the moment. I will eagerly wait for a new release image with fixes. (hint! hint!) Meanwhile, I ordered a used Evoluent vertical mouse from ebay and hope to get started with plan9 from userspace. I couldn't find any other usable 3 button mouse in the market here in India. -- Ramakrishnan
