My keyboard isn't recognized when attempting to install Precise Puppy 5.4.3 from a CD iso. I see the message suggesting I tab if my mouse doesn't work. However, the keyboard doesn't respond at all; no mouse, Enter, or Tab. The keyboard is recognized if I throw the boot switch and boot to command line only. I also tried acpi=off without success. My keyboard is a usb UltraNav, but I've installed several distributions on this box and keyboard without incident. |

 Hello,
Boot to the Command Prompt. Type "xorgwizard" and hit enter. _________________ "Close the "Windows", and open your eyes, to a whole new world" http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/puppyluvr/ http://theplpd.webs.com/

I accessed xorgwizard to solve the problem. After going through video selection and testing X I chose: <Tweak> <Tweak_xorg.conf> <Edit_xorg.conf> I deleted the following line: InputDevice "Synaptics Mouse" "AlwaysCore" #serverlayoutsynaptics I then saved the file, exited xorgwizard and ran xwin. My keyboard was recognized. I'd hoped xorgwizard would be a touch more automatic, but I had to manually edit xorg.conf. There may be another way but that was my solution. |
