Has anyone else noticed that their i386 CPU server loses the keyboard
altogether?

I've been sharing the same disk on two totally different motherboards,
and the keyboard eventually (it is not clear when, but presumably
after an interval unused) dies altogether.

It could be something here, naturally, and the fact that the CPU
server is not linked to a network may also be significant: another CPU
server that is actually connected is still perfectly functional.

The main difference is that the CPU server that loses the keyboard is
running entirely off its IDE drive, the other off a 2ed fileserver,
the former starts off with graphics, the latter doesn't.
