It's still working! And it's much more faster than before, since there are no blockings in the traphandler anymore. I hope that's still correct. I also changed all enable/disable calls from intr to softintr. > I'm glad to hear it's working for you, but that's still not quite the way > I'd like t

The keyboard and video questions are really quite separate, so I am answering them in two separate threads. Anything using the oskit-mach "console" driver at all should be considered a temporary hack. For one thing, if you boot with the serial console then there isn't any device that gives you a
