installed but weird keyboard problems

[Guy Schlosser]

Hi all, got a wierd keyboard problem here, and I'm hoping someone has 
a clue on how to solve it, because I'm truly stumped.  I'm running 
Fedora Core on an Abit ai7 motherboard with a 2.8 GB hyperthread 
processor.  My keyboard is a microsoft keyboard, that has connectors 
for both USB and PS2.  Under Windows, my keyboard works on either 
connection.  Under linux:
1. When I have my keyboard hooked up with the USB connector, I cannot 
use it to make grub boot choices.  I've already setup my bios so that 
USB keyboard support is via BIOS, not OS.
2. If I disconnect the USB connector and connect the PS-2, I can 
select which OS to boot with grub, but when the linux kernel takes 
over, I lose all keyboard functionality.  Anyone have any 
suggestions?  I would love to use my keyboard as a USB device if 
there's any way I can, but if not, why can't I use it once I'm in 
Linux?  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,


Guy
