After installing the Fedora 1, I got the exact same behavior examined here. I repeated the installation process only to come up with the same result. My mouse is wheel PS/2 mouse, keyboard is the one that comes with e-machines, processor is AMD Athlon. During installation, I choose the "Install Everything" option, and opted for "Select All" in languages support section. Installation seems to be working fine, except for the lack of keyboard and mouse after the reboot. After few hours in First Boot section, where system waits for me to add new users, configure printers, sound cards and such, perhaps the program gives up on waiting for input and continues the normal boot. Much to my surprise, it actually proceeds to the login screen, and the keyboard and the mouse are recognized again. I could move the mouse around the screen and type root into login box. After finding this out, I opted for reboot computer from the login screen menu, and got into the same problem of not being able to move the mouse during graphical boot, and no mouse or keyboard recognized during first boot. Using the very same installation, this bug did not occur in the last beta release. I have the same issue. If rhgb is enabled, no keyboard or mouse. However, this doesn't seem to be consistent. I have forgotten to remove the rhgb from the boot command and the system will sometimes boot okay. As a side note, while running Fedora I will occasionally lose the mouse or keyboard or both. I have to hard reset to recover from this. My machine is a homebuilt based on an Epox 8K7A (non-RAID) motherboard, AMD Athlon CPU. My mouse is a logitech MouseMan Wheel and my keyboard is a logitech I-touch. I have had the same problems when using the mouse as both USB and PS/2, by the way. I have the same problem on a dual-celeron smp box. However, the keyboard and mouse never return, even when booting without rhgb. Essentially, as soon as grub passes off to the kernel, the keyboard and mouse are dead. Unplugging them and plugging them back in always works for the keyboard, sometimes works for the mouse. Never reproduced such problem. Comment #3 seems to be an hardware related support issue and not related to rhgb. For the previous comment they are relatively old, and the new udev support is likely to change a lot of those issues. Closing this relatively ancient bug as not reproductible so far. thanks, Daniel |
