Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 79773
8.1 Beta2 - USB keyboard is non-functional when booting to a command-line interface
Last modified: 2016-04-18 05:38:34 EDT
When booting the system to a command-line interface(run level=3) with a USB keyboard, the keyboard is non-functional. Desktop system uses an upcoming nvidia chipset. The hid module is installed, but not being used. This system was initially configured/installed with a PS/2 keyboard, and subsequently was replaced with a USB keyboard. Will attempt to reproduce this issue with an initially installed/configured USB keyboard. Was able to use the keyboard when booting into runlevel=5 environment using GDM. ---------- Action by: ltroan Believe this needs to be escalated to Bugzilla for Engineering to respond directly. Will verify tomorrow. ltroan assigned to issue for HP-ProLiant. Category set to: Installer::Stage 2 Status set to: Waiting on Tech ---------- Action by: Marcg.Barber Attempted to install 8.1b2 on the same system using USB keyboard and mouse. Since the installer begins in a text mode to test the media, the USB keyboard is non-functional and the OS cannot be installed.
Escalated to Bugzilla per Engineering OK.
Issue Tracker 12418.

FROM ISSUE TRACKER Event posted 03-07-2003 09:43am by Marcg.Barber with duration of 0.00 This problem was reported on a system using nVidia's upcoming nForce2 chipset. I am not sure if the problem is specific to our version of this design, probably impacts all nForce2 boards.
