I'm having a problem getting my keyboard to work on 2.5.7. 2.5.5 compiled and works correctly for me. 2.5.7 compiles with no errors as well as all modules compiling with no errors. No matter what combination of config params I try I can't get the system to recognize keystrokes. If I boot to level 3 I just see nothing when I type. If I boot into X I can move the mouse around until I press a key and then the mouse freezes. The machine is still running as I can telnet into it from another machine. I also tried downloading and applying the dj patch. Same symptoms.

Machine is an Althon XP 1800+, soyo dragon plus motherboard, ATI 128 video card, 40 gig ide hard drive.

What info do I need to post to get some help debugging this thing?

Thanks,

Louis Adamich
