keyboard problem

[Justin Zygmont]

has anyone else noticed that some of the keys don't work?  The shift and 
arrow keys don't respond when running a program in dosemu, when playing a 
game, I can't even move around or jump.

depends on what version you are using, and where you use DOSEMU (console,
X?)  I guess you have a problem with $_rawkeyboard for 1.1.4 at the
console -- try 1.1.4.15 or try the -k option.

keyboard problem

[Hubert Mercier - Faculte des Sciences]

I try to compile the linux kernel 2.4.20 on the gentoo 1.4rc3 and i can't
get the ps2 keyboard working :

dmesg gives me the following (sorry, full dump follows ;-).

I tried several configs, with and without APIC (i found a few messages on
the subject), but i really can't get it working. I got into the box
activating sshd and logging from network, but this is not very pratical
;-)
The target machine is a Asus Terminator P4 533, specifications are
available here : http://www.asus.com/prog/spec.asp?m=Terminator%20P4%20533
Chipset is a SIS651.

Does someone have a clue ?

Thanks in advance !

 Just my €0.02 :
 does it work with other kernel version?
 If not, you may try another bootloader, let's say Gujin:
 It manages the keyboard chip differently - it opens A20 and reset
 the keyboard interface itself if needed.
 May work, may not work, YMMV...

 Note also your startup lines:
|agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 199M
|agpgart: Unsupported SiS chipset (device id: 0651), you might want to try
|agp_try_unsupported=1.

Keyboard problem

[Natalie Protasevich]

Hello,
We have a problem with keybords here. It only hits several systems out
of many, and really impossible to reproduce because it happens on
different combinations of hardware/software and no one managed to find
out what triggers it. I had it on my workstation for a while, then it
was gone (was as of Friday when I hit it again).
Keyboard stops responding while mouse is still functional, if you hold
a key for a few seconds it reacts and displays a key (several of
them). If I hold down well ctrl-alt-F1 then I'm able to switch to text
screen and keyboard is just fine there. So it happens while X is
running, seems more likely when memory intensive apps are running
(firefox, kernel builds). Doesn't depend on type of videocard, whether
it is double or single monitor configuration, type of mouse (USB or
PS2 - but our HW guys said the systems have PS2 connector through the
USB bridge) - nothing seems to matter only presence of X. Restarting X
fixes a problem, but it is still very disruptive to everyone affected.
It seems like Linux input driver, USB and X may be involved. What can
be done to diagnose this problem? There is nothing in the logs, only
couple messages in X log which tell that screen saver was run a couple
times and mysterious message about Screen 0 and 1 now "sharing
resources". Do we need USB sniffer to trace traffic? Anything we can
do to get information from the kernel? Maybe instrumenting keyboard
driver and Xorg keyboard library somehow, use kprobes.
Any recommendations?
Thanks,
--Natalie

What keyboard driver are you using in X? Isit the standard keyboard
driver or xf86-input-evdev? If the former you can try loading evbug
module (which will dump all input events into syslog) and wait for the
condition to appear. Then connect to the box remotely (ssh/telnet) and
see if keypresses still make to syslog. If they do that means that
USB/HID and input core work fine and the propblem lies in the upper
layers.

You could also enable CONFIG_USB_DEBUG and CONFIG_HID_DEBUG (*) and see 
whether there are any error messages reported when the hang occurs.

(*) with the latest vanilla kernel (2.6.23-rc1 and later) CONFIG_HID_DEBUG 
defaults to 'y', but you have to pass 'debug=1' parameter to receive the 
debugging output).

Keyboard problem

[Alain M.]

Hi,

I just posted about this on FD-DEV, but further testing made me believe 
it's a dosemu problem:

I have a keyboard, that is a "small" and has a layout like a notebook 
but on a desktop and it has a key for characters "/" and "?" that is 
just besides the Alt-Grey key.

I found a program CCHAR in 
<http://www.bookcase.com/library/software/msdos.util.keyboard.html> that 
"displays keycode at bottom right of screen". It shows scancodes for 
everything, including Ctrl,Shift,Alt and all Locks *except* for this key!!!

Just tested with another program Chris sent on fd-dev with the same 
result :(

Please help

Re: Keyboard problem

[Alain M.]

Confirmed: I just managed to boot this same machine in pure FreeDOS and 
the key works just fine. ScanCode is 0x73=115

So it is a dosemu problem. Ah! I have tested many combinations of 
$_rawkeyboard and $_X_keycode...

Please help :(
Alain

Re: Keyboard problem - with NDN

[Alain M.]

Hi,

I still haven't fixed my keyboard problem 100%, but I know what is 
happening now!

Two keys ("ç" and "/") are generating a double scancode: one for ALT and 
one for the key, in fast sequence.

So in almost all applications there is no problem, an extra Alt doesn't 
make any difference, but NDN uses it change the cursor to the upper window.

I did a lot more tests and this is my configuration (all keys work):
$_rawkeyboard = (1)
$_X_keycode = (off)
$_layout = "auto"
autoexec.bat: keyb br,850,c:\bin\br.kl /ID:275
here is my keyboard: 
<http://web.omnidrive.com/APIServer/public/DBpDfNQ3OyrUjdIRc2OiY0Dd/MiniKeyboard.jpg>

All keys work except for these two keys in NDN. I tested many different 
keyboard, including big, small, brazilian and US. I also tested many old 
and latest NDN. A small program CCHAR.COM shows me the two scan codes 
when I press "ç" or "/"

I tried running dosemu with -Dk (or -D+k or +Dk) but nothing gets 
printed on the console.

Please help, but if you only direct me to the portion of dosemu's code 
where this could be happening, I can make tests...

Thanks,
Alain

Keyboard Problem

[Aditya Gadre]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1882 bytes --]

I have my configuration with Fedora13 and Jeremy's Dom0 kernel and using
them with xen-unstable and qemu-unstable.
When I try to install domU using virt-install or directly using 'xm create'
with vnc enabled, keyboard does not respond in the virt-viewer.
When I duplicate the OS and start the domU mouse works but keyboard dosen't
work in virt-viewer. I have tried other VNC viewers also.
How can I solve this problem?

My qemu-dm log reads as follows after i press 2 keys then a,b,c,d... in the
virt-viewer:

This seems likely to be the problem. Can you post your guest
configuration file?

The carriage return inside the quotes could indicate an issue with your
config file or the parsing thereof.

Does /usr/share/xen/qemu/keymaps/common exist on your system?
