Hi.  About a week ago, my machine started refusing input from  the console.
The whole machine is alive (i can telnet to it fine, all processes run ok), i
can boot into single user fine, and the console works, but when I boot
regular, it won't take any input from the keyboard.  (The numlock light will
go on and off so the keyboard isn't *completely* hung.)  I'm really
confused.......

Thanx...alex...
