Hi, I was directed by Kris of PC-BSD to this list to report following problem.
I have a HP Pavillion m7760 2006 PC with wireless keyboard and wireless mouse. They work via a receiver which is connected in the PC by USB. The problem is both do not react when installing PC-BSD first screen. Same for FreeBSD8, as I tried to install as well. There is no reaction on Ctrl+alt+F1. In the messages previous the graphical install screen I managed to read the following; USB alloc device 1586 USB alloc device 1624 device descriptor failed at addr2 later uhub reattach port: 435: could not allocate new device. According to Kris of PC-BSD it should be a problem wth the new USB subsystem of FreeBSD8. This is an issue that should be resolved. I still had a PS2 keyboard, but had to buy a PS2 mouse in order to install. Well, buying a PS2 mouse is becoming quite hard. They are all USB nowadays. Without proper USB support BSD will not survive. Besides this, BSD is the best OS I ever used. Stable, fast...a Linux-killer... _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-usb To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
