Switching between computers is equivalent to connect and disconnect the USB keyboard rather often. After this disconnect/connect I still happen to experience times when the USB stack can't synchronize again, leaving me without access to the computer (kernel 2.6.12-9). I since I've mentioned this already several years ago I though this might be solved but it seems Linux isn't able to build a state-of-the-art USB stack which is able to synchronize in _each_ case. Is there anything I can do to help find out why the USB doesn't work? Is there a log anywhere on they system? O. Wyss -- Cross-platform: http://wyoguide.sf.net/index.php?page=Cross-platform.html
