Operating Systems Solaris Can't bring E25K system controller to OK prompt Post 302204189 by sparcguy on Wednesday 11th of June 2008 12:23:55 AM

There is a way to bring the server down to ok prompt but is a last resort.

Switch the server key to normal "1" mode (make sure it's not pointing to padlock)

Remove the keyboard and plug it back immediately (this usually accompanied by a small *beep* sound)

Note this works with PS2 connecter keyboard but I've never had to chance to test with the newer USB keyboards.

If it works with USB keyboard pls remember to come back here to share this info.

KBDMUX(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						 KBDMUX(4)

NAME
kbdmux -- keyboard multiplexer SYNOPSIS
device kbdmux In /boot/device.hints: hint.kbdmux.0.disabled="1" DESCRIPTION
The kbdmux keyboard driver provides support for basic keyboard multiplexing. It is built around the idea of a ``super keyboard''. The kbdmux driver acts as a master keyboard consuming input from all slave keyboards attached to it. Slave keyboards can be attached to or detached from the kbdmux keyboard driver with the kbdcontrol(1) utility. SEE ALSO
kbdcontrol(1), atkbd(4), syscons(4), ukbd(4) CAVEATS
The kbdmux keyboard driver switches all slave keyboards into K_RAW mode. Thus all slave keyboards attached to the kbdmux keyboard share the same state. The kbdmux keyboard is logically equivalent to one keyboard with lots of duplicated keys. HISTORY
The kbdmux module was implemented in FreeBSD 6.0. AUTHORS
