Fedora Hardware :: USB Keyboard Not Detected At Boot F14?
Nov 23, 2010
Over the weekend my MoBo, MPU, & PSU decided to retire so I had to replace everything including memory. I originally had a Gigabyte GA-MA790FX-DS5 MoBo with Athlon II x2 and Corsair 800MHz $GB RAM. I used my current USB keyboard and USB wireless Logitech trackball which the wireless had issues, but I don't use that now. Now I have an ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3, AMD Phenom II x4 and A_Data 4GB DDR3 1333 MHz RAM. I still have the same USB keyboard which worked fine on the old MoBo and now have a wired USB mouse. I had installed F14 prior to the fried chips incident and all was working fine. With the new MoBo I have 2 issues as follows:
1. On boot both the USB keyboard and the USB mouse are detected by the BIOS, but when the screen comes up to enter my passphrase for my encrypted deviceshe keyboard is unresponsive. I have gotten it to work by hitting the "ESC" key steadily just before this screen pops up. The BIOS settings for USB seem to have only turning on Legacy USB devices option which seems to have no impact on this problem.2. When I shut down, the system does not power off and the display will show that the system is halted. All BIOS settings in regards to Power make reference to Sleep or Suspend modes, power mode after loss of AC power.can furnish the exact wording of all power related settings and USB per the manual

I would like to dual boot Ubuntu 10.04 and Fedora 13. I have 20 GB set aside for Fedora and Ubuntu is already installed. I know that I need to not install the boot loader in Fedora (GRUB) and I have done that. Fedora is not detected in my grub from Ubuntu. How to I get Fedora to be detected by Grub. Do I need to reinstall Fedora? Also, I deleted Windows, but my grub still has Visa on the boot menu.

After upgrading to 11.04 everything went fine for almost 6 weeks. Now the keyboard is no longer detected. It happened overnight, without any updates or changes. Mouse is working. (Partial upgrade from 10.10, desktop computer)

I find that once i log into gnome i have to pull out the Logitech C600 web cam and plug it for it to show up in the 'input' tab under sound preferences.
It's a bit of a hassle to do this every time i log on. I tested it in Ubuntu 10.04 and the webcam is properly detected at the boot.

I'm trying to install Debian Testing onto my Acer Aspire One ZG5 using the testing versions of boot.img and debian-testing-i386-CD-1.iso. I previously installed (two days ago) the latest release of stable, and the boot.img/CD1 from that worked fine, installed seamlessly. With testing though, the menu does not respond to the keyboard as soon as the menu appears to select Install/Graphical install/Help, etc. I have also tried to boot with an external (USB) keyboard, which again, works fine with the stable version of boot.img/CD1, but not testing.I did some searching and couldn't find anything that looked similar

I tried to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a quiet old DELL Inspiron 2650. During the install process, neither mousepad nor keyboard (German-Swiss) are detected. Hence it is impossible to get through the install process.

I'm having intermittent problems booting with my USB keyboard. Originally the problem was at the screen for entering my passphrase to unlock my LUKS volumes. The BIOS would recognize both USB keyboard and mouse, the BIOS passed off to GRUB with no problem and GRUB would take over the boot process. In the troubleshooting process I had changed grub.conf to show the menu with a 15 second display. ASUS BIOS also has a boot OS delay to allow access to ASUS Extra or hit ESC to skip the delay and then the GRUB menu comes up and I am able to edit the lines of boot commands and then enter to boot. I'll loose the keyboard when it gets to the point of entering the Passphrase.
I have changed the following BIOS settings:
USB Legacy: enabled (default Auto)
APCI 2.0 Support: Disabled (default Enabled)
My hardware is:
MoBo: ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 BIOS ver: 1601
RAM: A-Data 4GB DDR3 (2x2GB sticks)
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 965
PSU: OCZ Technology ModXstream-Pro 600W
[Code]...
It had been working fine for about 2 or 3 days and then today it took a half hour to boot up. I had even tried an old PS/2 keyboard and got the same results. In the past that keyboard would boot and then I was able to shutdown change back to my USB keyboard and boot up fine. I'm wondering if I'm right in thinking that it's a defective MoBo. If so and I'm able to return it to the store (MicroCenter in Duluth, GA) should I just get the same as a replacement or go with another MoBo from ASUS, or go with another MoBo by another mfg? If I should go with the 3rd option anyone have any recommendations? I have had Gigabyte in the past but they only seem to last about 18 months and had issues with the 2 DVD drives (closing on their own after I opened them, that stopped after switching to ASUS)
I had also installed F14 when I still had the last Gigabyte MoBo which sort of blew up taking down the CPU and PSU about a week later. I'm now on the first week with the ASUS MoBo.

I have Fedora 12 and I'm using it as a server and there's no keyboard. Everything works fine, except that I can't reboot. I can see the system coming up, but at the end it seems to stop / hang. Maybe something todo with gdm, I don't know!

Back during the early days of live usb drives (F9) before persistent overlays were not ready for prime time, I created an approach to do persistence by injecting a special rc.local file into my custom live usb spin. This script mounts a file containing an encrypted ext3 filesystem using losetup which prompts for a password.
This scheme worked well for F9 and F10 but is now broken for F11 because the keyboard is not enabled at the time rc.local is executed. Obviously, all the work done to F11 for speeding up the boot time and moving the boot to the first console has broken my approach.

I'm trying to get FC13 running on a Toshiba SG20 - no keyboard, no monitor. grub.conf and the entry KEYBOARDTYPE=pc and I think that's where it's hanging. Can I say KEYBOARDTYPE=none ? There is nothing, that I can find, even on the gnu-grub site as to options for KBT.
I can attach the drive to my desktop - has screen and keyboard - and the system boots fine. However when I boot on my desktop I get the blue screen with the FC13 logo - semi circle - looks like a top laying on it's side.

Computer: Toshiba Satellite Pro L510 laptop, 10.10.This has always happened but I have gotten around it by time-out and putting my menu.list in order. When I first boot the machine (switch on for the day from computer being off) I get to the grub options to select a kernel and I have no keyboard. No up/down arrows so have to go with the kernel on top of the list (not always desirable).
When I get to the log-in screen if I hit restart and go back to the grub screen I have a keyboard and can select any kernel. If I login to the kernel I have full keyboard, no problem. If I then restart, I have keyboard at the grub list.
Nutshell: It is only when starting the computer fresh that the keyboard is dead at grub menu (and then only). Any time after that, once the computer has been switched on, if I restart I have keyboard at grub menu and can select different kernels. (Of course, if I switch the computer off and back on again, no keyboard ...)

If I change the keyboard shortcut for Open a Terminal in System > Preferences it will not stay in there if i log-out or reboot. When i log back in the shortcut is set to disabled, and I have tried different key combos and they give the same result. I am using Fedora 14 btw and hopefully you guys know of a solution. I tried making a custom command also using the gnome-terminal command but the terminal launches with a different directory other than my home directory when using that method.

I have a very strange problem with Fedora 13 on my home PC. When booting it just hangs at random points in the boot process. When it happend the first time, I thought the PC probably is completed frozen, but then I discovered that hitting the return button got the boot process going on again, but just step by step. That means on every boot I have to keep hitting the return button until gnome starts up, that's very annoying. So for any reason the boot process seems to switch to interactive mode somehow...
I already removed the kernel boot options rhgb and quiet to see, where exactly this happens in the boot process. But as I said, it seems to be completely random. Sometimes it's when "Starting udev", sometimes, when setting up eth card, when starting atd, and so on. It's different every time.
By the way, a similar thing happens when shutting down. It can take up to half an hour until the PC really shuts down. But it's usually going faster if I just keep hitting return after issueing the shutdown command (which actually looks a bit dull). But the PC finally shuts down at some point. That's not the case when booting up. I thought, maybe there's some kind of timeout problem. But even waiting for two hours, the PC does not startup without keeping hammering the return button

I am running Vista on my C: drive and I just got Fedora 11. I planned to dual boot Vista and fedora 11. I Downloaded the Live CD from the site (680 +- MB) and burned the files IN the .iso file to an empty DVD and CD. Shrank my D: drive and now have about 27 GiB wort of unpartitioned space. I booted from the Live CD. everything went OK until i chose Boot from the Boot Menu that came up. First it took me to a screen with the following message:
ACPI: expecting a [reference] package element found type 5. and then in went on to boot normally. Then when it reached the user login screen, I found that my mouse and keyboard were'nt responding and that there was no lights on any of the keys. I checked the USB cables and did a hard shutdown and booted from the Live CD again, but the problem persists.

I have a system where the logical volumes are not being detected on boot and would like some guidance as to how to cure this. The box is a Proliant DL385 G5p with a pair of 146 GB mirrored disks. The mirroring is done in hardware by an HP Smart Array P400 controller. The mirrored disk (/dev/cciss/c0d0) has 4 partitions: boot, root, swap and an LVM physical volume in one volume group with several logical volumes, including /var, /home and /opt.
The OS is a 64-bit RHEL 5.3 basic install with a kernel upgrade to 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5.x86_64 (to cure a problem with bonded NICs) plus quite a few extras for stuff like Oracle, EMC PowerPath and HP's Proliant Support Pack. The basic install is OK and the box can still be rebooted OK after the kernel upgrade. However, after the other stuff goes on it fails to reboot.
The problem is that the boot fails during file system check of the logical volume file systems but the failure is due to these volumes not being found. Specifically the boot goes through the following steps:
Red Hat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting
setting clock
starting udev
loading default keymap (us)
setting hostname
No devices found <--- suspicious?
Setting up Logical Volume Management:
fsck.ext3 checks then fail with messages: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/<volume group>/<logical volume> There are also messages about not being able to find the superblock but this is clearly due to the device itself not being found. If I boot from a rescue CD all of the logical volumes are present, with correct sizes; dmsetup shows them all to be active and I can access the files within. Fdisk also shows all the partitions to be OK and of the right type. I am therefore very sure that there is nothing wrong with the disk or logical volumes....

So I have a Samsung monitor at work (model 2343BWX) that I use in addition to my laptop screen. My computer is a T500 think pad. When I boot into ubuntu 10.04 from previously shutting down the computer in ubuntu I can't detect the monitor. If I however boot first into windows (I don't even have to enter my password, I can just press shutdown on the menu instead of logging in, and then boot into ubuntu) and it auto detects the monitor.
I have tried going to System -> Preferences Monitors and clicking "Detect Monitors" it doesn't work. Anyone know how this could be?

I'm running 10.04 as a DVR (mythtv). If the computer boots with the TV off it won't detect the settings, and when I turn the TV on nothing displays. I have to ssh into the computer and reboot it to get it to detect the display.Any idea how I can go about solving this? How can I disable autodetect and force it to use a specific setting?

I'm trying to install 11.04 onto a custom build pc.I have burned an install CD of the desktop edition and have inserted it into the drive, started up, and tried to run the live version. IT pops up, everything works, Hooray! I go to install it to disk and I follow all the prompts and it needs me to reboot to start. YAY! I click to reboot, remove the CD as requested, and then I get the "No Boot Device Detected!" error message.
I then tried installing straight from the CD and not booting into the live version. I follow all the steps and get a congratulations on installing it and all I need to do it reboot. I remove the CD, reboot, and BANG! the same message. I'm not sure what's up or even where I can get information from because there is no BIOS splash screen or anything to naviagate through.
System Specs:
Intel Atom Mobo/Proc (1.66Hz)
8GB Corsair RAM
1 slim optical drive (SATA)
1 2TB Seagate HD (SATA)
1 Case/PSU combination
EDIT1: Currently I am checking the live CD for defects (though it has an internet connection so I'm unsure whether the CD matters).

I have a raid array level 5 with metadata 1.2 made with mdadm. I put it on /etc/fstab to mount it on boot but it doesn't works because the raid is not detected on boot. I have a /etc/mdadm.conf like this:
Code:
ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid5 num-devices=3 metadata=1.2 name=0 UUID=afdfe00e:0d18a5eb:29aa54f9:8b422ee0
Just another thing... After the command
Code:
mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm.conf
The mdadm.conf is like this:
Code:
ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid5 num-devices=3 metadata=1.02 name=0 UUID=afdfe00e:0d18a5eb:29aa54f9:8b422ee0
But I change manually the metadata version because the 1.02 give me a error. I don't know if it is a bug or what! Beside this. I have to put a line in /etc/rc.d/rc.local to assemble the array.
Code:
mdadm --assemble --scan --uuid=afdfe00e:0d18a5eb:29aa54f9:8b422ee0
And after that I already can mount it. Why the array is not detected on boot? Is because metadata type is prior to 1.00? Can I put the line I have on /etc/rc.d/rc.local to assemble the array in another file, that will be executed before /etc/fstab?

I just bought a Belkin F7D2101 USB Wifi N dongle, it works great, but every time I start my computer, it's not detected. At least, my network applet shows no network adapter. I have to unplug and plug it back in on another USB port to get detected. Then, my network dmon automatically connects to my wifi network.

My desktop is a Dell XPS 630i. It has a SD card reader on the front panel.
It used to work until about a few months ago (I guess, I don't use it that often). Now, the SD card is undetected when inserted.
If inserted before boot, then the existing partitions are available in thunar. I can remove and insert back the card in the reader without it being detected. I can mount and unmount the partitions. But if I "eject" the partition, then the card is not detected anymore even if pulled out and pushed in again.
Not much in dmesg (the drive is /dev/sde, and there are two partitions in the card, it is a raspian OS) :
Code: Select all[ 542.144424] sd 6:0:0:3: [sde] No Caching mode page present
[ 542.144430] sd 6:0:0:3: [sde] Assuming drive cache: write through
[ 542.159299] sd 6:0:0:3: [sde] No Caching mode page present
[ 542.159303] sd 6:0:0:3: [sde] Assuming drive cache: write through
[ 542.161556] sde: sde1 sde2
[Code] ....
When I click "eject" or manually remove the card, it says "capacity change from 2013265920 to 0".
I'm using Jessie, with the latest 3.11 kernel from experimental, but the issue was there with 3.10 and most probably older kernels. I tried to go back in time using older kernels (down to 2.6, I think the reader worked at that time) without succes, which may indicate it does not depend only on the kernel.
I don't have any "power saving" setting in the BIOS I could disable. And I didn't modify the BIOS, even the BIOS settings, in the last months.
I'm pretty sure it is a software issue as it worked with a knoppix 7-something.
Code: Select allecho 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan
command I've read about does not seem to work. It is supposed to force the detection but nothing in dmesg and no volume available in thunar.
I found a workaround yesterday. If I launch gparted (needs admin privileges), the SD card is detected. Like if it forced the detection. Sometimes, I have to specify the path explicitely to get it to appear :
Code: Select allgparted /dev/sde
Besides, I'd like to have this bug fixed, but I don't know against which package I could file a bug. Could it be some misconfiguration on my side ?

using a rather incompatible laptop (Gateway ID49C) with 10.04; by this I mean that I have problems with sound output, brightness control, keypad functionality, occasional freezes, etc.Anyway, the Update Manager popped-up last night, proposing me to download some 400 Mbs of "updates" to installed programs, I presume. I told him to go ahead. After downloading, it proceeded to install the updates, and I left the computer unattended. Hours later, I came back to find the computer hibernating: it woke up to show me update manager freezed on some grub update, to my horror.
I shut it down. Now, whenever I try to boot, I find a very low quality 10.04 text with four white dots that "fill up" as it boots (instead of the fancy logo), then the user selection thing pops-up. No response from keyboard or keypad. Howver, the system is NOT frozen, since the visible clock actually works.I can access GRUB (I have a dual boot) but the recovery mode does not work: it freezes at some point.
