Hi girls and guys, Does any one know how to setup Suse 8 (or even just X?) to work with a USB keyboard (on a compaq presario). The Bios supports the keyboard (ie I can use it with lilo), however after linux boots up and chucks me into kdm the keyboard wont work at all. Suse must be doing something peculiar, as the keyboard was working fine when mandrake 8.2 was installed on the system. Also if i boot up with tomsrtbt disk the keyboard works fine - allowing me to mount and change configurations files, now if only someone can let me know what the changes are that needs to be made! The keyboard was not working during installation either, but the mouse was, so I was able to cut n paste and required information for the install... (kdm doesnt seem to support cut and paste for login unfortunately..) The only useful google link i found was http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/swiegra_usbkeyboard.html, but that dosent work for a number of reasons (different config files in suse 8 compared to 7.3, kb was not detected during install). Any help appreciated.
