a co-worker with an SMP system tried installing gentoo 1.4 a couple of |
| 5 |
days ago; the experience was mostly fine except that whenever he tried |
| 6 |
to boot an SMP kernel, his keyboard would no longer work (?) |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
any pointers to kernel config options that might work around this issue |
| 9 |
would be greatly appreciated, i am pretty sure it is a quirk in the |
| 10 |
apollo chipset that is causing this =) |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
the system is a p3 dual processor: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
motherboard: super p3tdde |
| 15 |
chipset: via apollo pro 266T |
| 16 |
dual 1.7 GHZ fcpga penium III's |
| 17 |
fastrak100 tx/lp series IDE raid card running RAID1 on two hdd's |
| 18 |
super-old MS natural split keyboard w/ ps2 interface |
| 19 |
1 GB RAM |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
he installed gentoo on an additional non-raid IDE drive. |
