On a Gateway ML6732 notebook, FreeBSD 9-stable is working great. Video

that, it works normally. This makes entering a passphrase more
challenging.
These are total shots in the dark:
1. It is entirely normal (and generally thought desirable) for the
screensaver to swallow the first character when it is running -- see if this
is worth further investigation by changing screensavers or disabling it
altogether.
2. check /etc/issue to see if there is a trailing ANSI sequence that might
eat a character.
Interesting suggestions. Turning off legacy USB support in the BIOS as
suggested by Adam seems to have fixed it.
