-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I tried to SSH into the box but I was unable to connect. I've also attempted to locate information on the BIOS but I've been unable to locate any information on the company (via Google). I went back and reinstalled the OS just to make sure that the install was good and I have the same problem. I'm kinda at a loss here. I don't think it is the software but I don't know what the problem could be with the keyboard working up until about five seconds after the login prompt pops up on the screen.
When you say the login prompt, are we talking the X login screen, or the mingetty login prompt (i.e. the CLI login presented at runlevel 3 ?). If it's the X login, try hitting CTRL-ALT-1 to swtich to a non-graphical login. If you're still stuck and you still think it's the keyboard, you could try booting the machine with neither keyboard nor mouse then reattempt the SSH login from a remote host. Failing *that* too try booting into rescue mode from a CD and see what happens then. Once you're in I'd check /var/log/messages (or /mnt/sysimage) for any weirdness. Will. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
