[SOLVED] USB Keyboard not working correctly
Posted: Thu Sep 03, 2009 5:15 pm
Its me again,
A friend of mine has recently installed Mint 7 64 bit onto his desktop computer which is also running Vista Ultimate 64 bit. The only problem we are having right now is the fact that his usb keyboard does not get recognized on either the vista bootloader or the mint boot loader.
The keyboard is a Saitek Eclipse2 usb keyboard, trying to keep the ability to dual boot because he does have some programs that will not run in WINE and dont want the overhead of running virtualbox with windows in it.
Any ideas on how to fix this? IE: Would it be possible to load the drivers for the keyboard when grub loads?
I ask because the keyboard works great in Mint but does not respond at grub, and I dont think this is a linux only issue since his keyboard does not work in the vista bootloader either.
Thanks in advance
