Gateway2000 Keyboard locks up Terminal

Gateway2000 Keyboard locks up Terminal

Post by Southwest String » Wed, 27 Nov 1996 04:00:00



I have a gateway2000 and when I hit the CapsLock and a few (not all) of
the number pad keys, it locks up the terminal and I can't access the
server until I reboot it.  Needless to say, I try not to hit these keys
very often, but mistakes do happen and it's very annoying.  Gateway
doesn't have any idea, and I'm hoping someone out there does.  Any help?

What are you running?
AIX? DOS? OS2? Linux? HP-UX/
Oh, excuse me, of course: you asked this in a SCO newsgroup.

What are you running?
Xenix 2.3.2?  Unix 3.2v4.0?  ODT 3.0?  OSR 5.0.2?

1. keyboard lock-ups

Hi,

I am having these mysterious lock-ups of my cordless logitech keyboard. It
does this mostly when working with console. It suddenly locks up for about
1-3 mins (no keys work), then it may let go or not. Pulling out the PS/2
cable and plugging it back in again helps, but only for a while - and after
this the keyboard repeat rate sinks to about half its value. Pressing those
CONNECT buttons on both the receiver and the keyboard doesn't help at all.
Oh and it never does this under win98. Maybe I have to lower the key repeat
rate? If so which file do I edit?

Please help?

Thanks in advance,
Vlad
