Can USB Keyboard recognition be built into Kernel?

JamesT · 11-08-2008, 03:30 AM

Hi To all you developers out there. I have never managed to get my mini 'Keysonic' keyboard to work with the iLiad 2nd Edition. I have tried to use Hudsons fix but although the keyboards three blue LED's flash it does not work?

I am not a programmer so this is probably due to me not Hudson's fix.

The linux kernel and modules seems to be important when trying to incorporate hardware on my Linux laptop but I have never tried to build a kernel etc.

Is there any chance you guys could add the USB keyboard functionality to the Iliad in a more user friendly way?

Many thanks

JamesT

Why not submit your feature request to iLiad OS project.
