Has any one had any experience with or Knowledge of the Gateway 2000 anykey 
keybord not being recognized by freeBSD. When I boot the key board is working 
during the boot process ie: Hot key works for SCSI setup and Keyboard is 
recognized when supplying parameters to boot. However after hardware detection 
phase is complete and logging in, keystrokes sre not picked up by FreeBSD. Any 
help or suggestions would be GREATLY apprecited as I am dead in the water. What 
is wierd is that 1 out of ten times the keyboard is OK. I am sure it is not 
hardware related ie: bad cord , connection etc.


Thanks, Frank Geluso.
