Re: USB support + Supermicro IPMI KVM = no keyboard

if we build a kernel without USB all is good.

So two questions:-
1. Can usb support be disabled from the loader?
2. Anyone got any ideas why USB would break the IPMI keyboard?

The IPMI keyboard is a USB keyboard. It seems to work OK on a box running 7.0:

port 6 addr 2: high speed, self powered, config 1, Multidevice(0x0002), Peppercon AG(0x14dd), rev 0.01

ukbd0: <Peppercon AG Multidevice, class 0/0, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2> on uhub3

The same box running 6.2 did not connect the device as a usb keyboard.
