This little unit is cool and nearly everything important works on
the important OS.
I don't care about the funny multi-card thingy as I only use USB
sticks.
The one bug is very annoying. The numpad key that is "." when
numlock is on and Del otherwise is really tricky.
When booting, at the boot prompt if the numlock is on, the key
produces dots as expected.
Once BSD.RD or BSD is running that is not the case.
BSD shows all the bugs and I shall skip BSD.RD as it is a subset.
At a login: prompt it appears that no chars are being sent BUT if
you hit the key 8 times it acts like you hit Enter except the
Password: prompt becomes assword:
Hit an Enter there and you get a Login failed and a new "login:"
prompt. (of course!)
At this point hitting the crazy key results in ^[[3~ appearing
every time the key is pressed. (until the max length (8 hits) is
exceeded.)
Logging in normally is fine but now the errant key simply echoes a
tilde for each keypress whether numlock is on or off.
The problem happens when using Mitsubishi Diamond Digital or
Samsung SDL1500 keyboards.
FWIW it doesn't happen using win things. XP or 7.
It does happen under older OpenBSD releases.
TIA,
No ideas? Anyone?
