After a little use, the keyboard dies. The only way to recover is to kill XS3 from an rlogin, and restart it. When the keyboard dies, and the screen blanks out after 10 min, it is not even possible to un-blank the screen from the keyboard. Ctrl-C, ctrl-Z, ctrl-Q, ctrl-alt-backspace etc also don't work. Cut and paste from the mouse sometimes works, and sometimes not, ie characters can be highlighted always, but pasted sometimes. 2. Do I use pc-cons or codrv kernel with XS3? Does it matter? -- Copyright KHUSHRO SHAHOOKAR, $0.02 khushro@eecs.umich.edu Univ. of Michigan, Ann Arbor
