Sometimes, when I type any keys in BIOS, my Linux guests boot without
keyboard - I'm not able to type in VNC console, guest's dmesg says:
i8042.c: No controller found.
Rebooting the guest doesn't fix the problem; only stopping/starting the
guest helps (i.e. new kvm process is started).
Which is a bit strange - usually, the keyboard is there when I boot:
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1
serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as
/devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input0
The keyboard is not present after I reboot the guest and usually type
before Linux is started. It does not happen always.
Observed with kvm-83, kvm-84, kvm-85 on multiple KVM hosts (different
hardware).
Anyone else seeing this? If you're not sure, do something like:
grep i8042 /var/log/kern*
(or grep "i8042.c: No controller found" /var/log/kern*)
