Description of problem: USB keyboard does not work during boot. It works in BIOS, GRUB, and after boot, but i can not enter passphrase. Tried different ports, and with the keyboard as only USB device, and no other keyboard. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install mga 1 with encrupted root More specifically i use / in an encrypted LVM -All set up during install using mga1 installer only. 2. Now with only an USB keyboard, try to enter the passphrase during boot... 3. Plug in a PS/2 keyboard, and you can enter it OK. To be more specific i installed having only a PS/2 keyboard. Maybe it is so intelligent that it know it did not need USB keyboard support before. This being a production system and i have never touched initrd etc before i refrain from experimenting...
Created attachment 1227 [details] Output of lsinitrd /boot/initrd-$(uname -r).img
I see three entries for "USB keyboard" in MCC "browse hardware": The first use usbhid, and the second sysrq, and i can not find neither in the lsinitrd output. The third use kbd, which i have there.
thomas, something related to the kernel ?

It is baaack :/ Today i could not unlock my mga1 systems during boot, (fileserver and workstation) without using a PS/2 keyboard retried from the basement... They have been running for at least two weeks without update so i am not certain when it broke.

OOPS,i meant they have been running for at least two weeks without *reboot* I run update on them about each week manually.
