grub configuration file
I've seen this recently on two Gigabyte mobos with F11-preview and grub-0.97-50.fc11.x86_64. Tried both ps/2 and USB keyboards directly connected to the box with same results. lshw from one of the mobos attached. Created attachment 343297 [details]

Same as bug 484546? This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.

Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. This bug is back in Fedora 19. A workaroud is to use a USB to PS2 serial converter. |

Install F11-preview, enabling 'rawhide' repo during installation 2. Hold down shift key during boot to bring up the grub menu Actual results: - Cannot use keyboard while grub menu is displayed (e.g., for entry selection, or to press 'a' to append kernel boot args) Expected results: - Keyboard should be useful for accessing the menu Additional info: Intel DQ35J0 mainboard with Keytronic USB keyboard directly connected. Note that this particular mainboard does not have PS/2 ports, so only USB keyboards may be used. USB legacy device emulation is enabled in BIOS.
