input2: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [NOVATEK Keyboard NT6881] on usb1:3.1

That's only a keyboard, but interestingly it shows up as a keyboard AND mouse. (This kernel is 2.4.21-pre5-ac3)

Anyway: In 2.5 bitkeeper (4/11/03), my keyboard is completely dead - even sysrq doesn't work. I've had similar problems with recent 2.4 bitkeeper kernels (but I can't be very specific - I can re-test if you'd like me to)

The keyboard works on 2.4.21-pre5-ac3.

Relevant Config:
INPUT, SERIO, USB_UHCI_HCD, USB_HID, USB_HIDINPUT = Y

Enabling standard AT keyboard (which shouldn't be necessary) doesn't help.

Does 2.5.67 work for you?

I can't test it - it oopses...

I'll try some more kernels when I have a little bit more time... and I'll report back.

I have a USB keyboard (a BTC model 9000) that has a PS/2 mouse port on the back. When USB enumerates it I get a keyboard controller and a mouse controller connection... I guess that's the sort of thing you have.

Exists a version of the keyboard with a mouse-port, or a version with a "mouse"-thing. (Track-Point, Track-Ball, Glide-Point, or whatever you call it today.)

Then there is a chance that they only use a single version of the chipset, which includes a mouse-port.

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as 
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, 
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
