When bootinmg with kernel from gentoo-sources-2.6.33-r2, I can use my PS/2 keyboard to select in the grub menue, but when the boot sequence has finished and I get the login at the text console (no X), the keyboard is simply dead. I have to unplug it and add it again, then it works as normal. Booting with the old kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r7 the keyboard works as expected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot with kernel from gentoo-sources-2.6.33-r2 2. Wait for the login prompt Actual Results: PS/2 keyboard is completely dead. Expected Results: PS/2 keyboard should simply work as it did with gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r7. Compare the grep output searching for the keyboard chipset i8042 in the dmesg output: =================== %< ======================= $ grep -n i8042 dmesg-* dmesg-2.6.32-gentoo-r7:678:serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 dmesg-2.6.32-gentoo-r7:679:serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 dmesg-2.6.32-gentoo-r7:682:input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input2 dmesg-2.6.33-gentoo-r2:605:serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 dmesg-2.6.33-gentoo-r2:606:serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 dmesg-2.6.33-gentoo-r2:756:input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input5 =================== %< ======================= With the new kernel the line 756 is the last one of dmesg output i.e. it occured only, because I plugged off and on the PS/2 keyboard to make it work. Obviously this kernel does no longer initialize it at startup. I'll attach the complete dmesg output from both kernels for comparison (and futher info on my setup/environment).

can you test the latest gentoo-sources-2.6.34-r1?
Yes, it fails for me also on gentoo-sources-2.6.34-r1.
Created attachment 239605 [details] config-2.6.33-gentoo-r2-working Funny enough, I have now a working configuraiton for gentoo-2.6.33-r2, but not for gentoo-2.6.34-gentoo-r1 altough the working config was used for the upgrade to the newer kernel.
Created attachment 239607 [details] config of gentoo-sources-2.6.34-gentoo-r1 The non-working configuration for the 2.6.34 kernel, where the PS/2 keyboard is again dead at login time (console).
I reported the problem at LKML linux-input and Dmitry requested a dmesg extract with activated debug messages for i8042. Actually he was able to fix it, since it works now with 2.6.35 (vanilla and gentoo-sources).
