We had a problem using KDB on Tiger machine because of the lack of PS/2 port on this machine. In order to bring a solution, I have written some code to bring USB support in KDB. I'm using a RedHat 7.2. You must apply this patch after the 2 KDB patches. It provides an option called "Support for USB Keyboard in KDB" in Kernel Hacking section. For now, it supports the usb-uhci driver for the USB controller. and supports the two USB keyboard drivers (hid and usbkbd) used by RedHat. Notice that you won't be able to use your USB Keyboard before USB subsystem is started. But it's a solution to debug a system running. You can download it at ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/kdb/download/v2.1/kdb-v2.1-2.4.18-ia64-usb-keyboard-2.bz2 For now, it works on kernel 2.4.18 with all recent patches. If you have remarks, please reply adding kdb@oss.sgi.com in copy of your mail. Thanks -- LELARGE Sebastien BULL S.A - Linux IA64 Team mailto:sebastien.lelarge@bull.net 38000 Echirolles
