Hello!

We are having problems bootig the server runing FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE 
(GENERIC kernell) via Belkin Components KVM console.

The console is emuating a USB keyboard and the keyboard works fine while 
in BIOS, up until the boot options screen - regardless of wearher the 
option "Boot with USB keyboard" or "Normal bot" is selected, the keybard 
stops responding after the system loads.

The usbd demon is loaded at startup, and keyboard & mouse are detected.

..
ukbd0: Belkin Components KVM USB Keyboard/Mouse, rev 1.00/2.01, addr 2, 
iclass 3/1
kbd1 at ukbd0
ums0: Belkin Components KVM USB Keyboard/Mouse, rev 1.00/2.01, addr 2, 
iclass 3/1
ums0: 5 buttons and Z dir.
..

Interesting thing is that  the console worked fine ubder FreeBSD 5.2 
Release.

Thank you for you help!
