Sun Blade 1000 keyboard not detected.

Hello,

I have a sun blade 1000 machine, it passes post, has 2 750mhz sparc 3 cpus and has 4GB of ram.

I have setup a TIP connection and did everything i could to figure what the hell is going on, but I cannot it seems to me that the usb ports are not giving out any power.

I've tried all sorts of keyboard, sun type 6, type 7 and various pc keyboards, all USB.

When the machine powers on, I have a keyboard plugged in, but no LED on the keyboard lights up, also, no led on the optical mouse lights up either.

This tells me that something on board is failed. However, the machine passes POST... how can that be?

Any ideas why the USB ports seem dead?

-----------------------------------

Update, using the tty console I got it booting to solaris 9, however, still no power to the USB/NIC/FIREWIRE ports... what is going on?

Reinstalling Solaris 9 on Sun Blade 100

For the past ten years I have owned a blade 100, and I had Solaris 9 running on it. Due to the fact, 9 is woefully out of date, I wanted to try 10, but 10 needed more ram, so I beefed up the ram to the full 2 gig. I have two 15 gig ide drives in the box (stock drives). But unfortunately solaris... (2 Replies)

NAME
bbc_beep - Platform-dependent Beep driver for BBC-based hardware. SYNOPSIS
beep@unit-address DESCRIPTION
The bbc_beep driver generates beeps on platforms (including Sun Blade 1000) that use BBC-based registers and USB keyboards. When the KIOC- CMD ioctl is issued to the USB keyboard module (see usbkbm(7M)) with command KBD_CMD_BELL/KBD_CMD_NOBELL, usbkbm(7M) passes the request to the bbc_beep driver to turn the beep on and off, respectively.
