The most likely culprit that I can see is: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
# CONFIG_KEYBOARD_ATKBD is not set |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
This controls the traditional PS/2 keyboard support (as well as the |
| 33 |
older AT keyboard, which used the same protocol, but a differently |
| 34 |
shaped connector), which I believe is what VBox emulates (as just |
| 35 |
about everything supports having a PS/2 keyboard). |
