From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Q312461) Description of problem: I did a vanilla install of RH 7.2.93. The keyboard and mouse were detected and worked fine. When the computer was restarted the computer did not find the keyboard and when the boot up hardware checked for the mouse it de-configured it as not found. Neither the mouse or the keyboard were then usable Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.I re-formatted the drive and reinstalled RH7.2.93 after downloading it from another site 2.Same results 3. Actual Results: Same results Expected Results: I was hoping the keyboard and mouse would work Additional info:
What type of keyboard/mouse is this? (USB or legacy)?
This is a standard PS/2 keyboard(gateway) and a Logitect wireless wheel mouse - the installer found it as a generic 3 key mouse.
Bill have you heard of this happening? I don't think its an anaconda issue at the look of it.
No, I haven't heard of this happening before.
What type of system is this?
This is an older system a Pentium 3 MMX 450 / 128 MB RAM / 20 GB HD
It seems to be a X problem. I started the system to the command line and the keyboard works. As soon as I start X neither the keyboard or the mouse works. I don't seem to have any problems from the command line though. As long as I stay out of the GUI it great.
