I have only one display and keyboard for CPU and file server and another machine. In most times keyboard is off from the CPU server... By the way, thanks for your patch to Alef, now I'm running news file server written in Alef (by Charles) on Release 3 Plan 9 system. Yesterday, my release 2 CPU server retired from our office with best respects from me. That file server was turned off the power, and still is waiting when I'll meet neccessity of updated release 2 sources.

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. ++L --upas-lrjmzqdzamnesikddliiijircg--
