I've got linux working on an obscure laptop.... the problem is...
the keyboard doesn't respond. currently, I am logging in via serial port
to do things.
I know a few things:
- keyboard stops respond immediately after the kernel is uncompressing.
because I can't hit control-alt-del.
- after i'm logged in, typing 'cat /proc/interrupts' tells me
that irq 1 (keyboard) has received 2 (sometimes up to 5) interrupts
and that number stays the same even if I pound of the keyboard.
I've tried modifying various parts of the kernel code that has to do with
the keyboard, but to no avail..
If anyone has any experience/pointers as to what else I should try..
please let me know!
thanks!
