Dear Gurus, Here is some dmesg information from 2.6.15 kernel that gives me more clues what is going on.
isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards... isapnp: No Plug & Play device found PNP: PS/2 Controller [PNP0303:PS2K,PNP0f13:PS2M] at 0x60,0x64 irq 1,12 i8042.c: Can't read CTR while initializing i8042. pnp: Device 00:0b does not supported disabling. pnp: Device 00:0a does not supported disabling. note that on 2.6.8.2 kernel booting it refers to serio as involved with keyboard and mouse dmesg on an sid system with the 2.6.8 kernel tells me the following serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0 atkbd.c: Spurious ACK on isa0060/serio0. Some program, like XFree86, might be trying access hardware directly. atkbd.c: Spurious ACK on isa0060/serio0. Some program, like XFree86, might be trying input: PS/2 Generic Mouse on isa0060/serio1 I found kernel traffic discussing this issue. Here are simple examples: 1) http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/14/208 Re: PROBLEM: PS/2 keyboard does not work with 2.6.15 3) http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0601.1/1433.html Re: PROBLEM: PS/2 keyboard does not work with 2.6.15 From: Alan Stern 3) http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0505.3/0846.html ***********quoted info********** In 2.6.12-rc5-mm1, I can't use my psaux mouse, but it worked perfectly fine in both 2.6.12-rc5 and in 2.6.12-rc4-mm2. In 2.6.12-rc5-mm1 , dmesg says: PNP: PS/2 Controller [PNP0303:PS2K,PNP0f13:PS2M] at 0x60,0x64 irq 1,12 Failed to disable AUX port, but continuing anyway... Is this a SiS? If AUX port is really absent please use the 'i8042.noaux' option. serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 This is what dmesg says in both 2.6.12-rc4-mm2 and 2.6.12-rc5 : PNP: PS/2 Controller [PNP0303:PS2K,PNP0f13:PS2M] at 0x60,0x64 irq 1,12 serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 I am using a Shuttle FT61 motherboard. Is there any more information necessary to debug this? ************************** -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
