Description of problem:
The platform on which we run redhat-ready certification v.2-0.9-14.2 
has no PS/2 keyboard&mouse, we use usb keyboard and mouse.

The test fails to recognize that a USB device has been removed from 
the server after one is unplugged during the interactive portion of 
the test with this error: "(USB:x) no USB devices removed!" <x = port 
number tested>.  

The certification test is not designed for systems which has USB 
keyboard and mouse and as a result, the test prompts user to remove 
these devices before starting the test. Clearly, without any usb 
keyboard the test can not be completed.

Test passes if the redhat-ready is executed over the serial console 
while both keyboard and mouse are unplugged.

legacyfree is a hardware.conf option specifically for the above.  It
should allow you to leave the keyboard plugged in during the testing
and simply add/subtract things from the other ports which should be
empty before starting the test.

Comment 2 Rob Landry 2005-04-14 17:27:15 UTC
I'm going to go ahead and close this one assuming "legacyfree" resolved the
above.  Otherwise see bug #141575 for a related USB problem.
