I'm really not sure which list to post this to, and this is my first post on any of the official FreeBSD mailing lists, so pardon my ignorance. This was a tossup between arch & hackers.

A long time ago, way back in May of 2005, there was a bug/change-request posted by a Tim H. regarding increasing compatibility of the psm driver with KVM switches. That post is located at: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-bugs/2005-May/012848.html

Recently, I was blessed (and cursed) with a new KVM to switch between Windows, my glorified music player, and FreeBSD. That's when the very issue Tim brought up started happening, and caused me countless hours of frustration and researching (without a scrollwheel, mind you).


Finally, after finding that post and doing as instructed, (psm.c was located at /usr/src/sys/dev/atkbdc/psm.c for me), I was able to get things back to bearable.

Is there any way that simple change could be implemented into the base, or are there other issues that would arise by implementing that fix? I can verify that it works, and I've noticed there are quite a few people that experienced the same issue.

Thanks,

Rick
