One potential problem is that at_keyboard directly competes with BIOS for input characters. It probably should disable BIOS keyboard processing on i386-pc platform while is is active. There was alternative suggestion (because at_keyboard was too unreliable) to use extended BIOS keyboard service. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-grub/2015-07/msg00004.html (and thread that led to it) ... hmm ... I thought there was a followup but I cannot find it. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
