[2.6.0-test3 and earlier] no keyboard

[Florian Weimer]

2.6.0-test3 and earlier provide only a very limited form of console on
a Siemens Primergy H450.

For example, pressing RET yields:

atkbd.c: Unknown key (set 0, scancode 0xed, on isa0060/serio0) pressed.          

So far, I only tested remotedly, using the built-in console
redirection support.  2.4.20 works like a charm (using remote console,
I think we never tested the local one).

Set 0 is "impossible", certainly a bug.
So what are the boot messages about the keyboard?

serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1

I hope these lines are the correct ones.

But no lines like

input: AT Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0

?

I suppose such a line would follow the serio ones?

Then the answer is no.  However, the string is conained into the
vmlinux binary, so I guess the feature has been compiled into the
kernel.
