You should give more details about the image you use (exact URL you
downloaded it from) and the exact moment where your keyboard is not
recognized.

Does it work at the boot prompt?

Does it work at the language selection screen?

.../...

Numerous people have completed installs with USB keyboards so
I actually fail to believe that the problem is strictly inherent to
USB keyboards...

  Bug#402157: debian-installer: Bad apt command for grub on AMD64         


Author: Bob Apodaca
Date: Dec 8, 2006 08:00

Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

Grub fails to install on AMD64, when I check the virtual console the command
given is: apt-install grub

Starting a shell and using "chroot /target apt-get install grub" works fine.
After that, using the installer grub will install.

  Bug#402142: flash-kernel: Minor correction to comment in source code         


Author: Phil Endecott
Date: Dec 8, 2006 05:20

Package: flash-kernel
Version: 0.7
Severity: minor

Current comment:

# See http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Info/BootFlash -- the NSLU2 uses a
# 16 byte MTD header, the first two bytes (big endian) give the length of
# the remainder of the image, and the remaining bytes are zero. Generate
# this header.

should say "first *four* bytes".

  Bug#402127: GTK frontend should build on and X target too

I don't understand why it's useful for the udeb, isn't the udeb always
runnong atop of directfb?

The problems you describe are not obvious to me, I currently only see a
udeb providing cdebconf-gtk. IIUC, cdebconf-gtk-udeb will always be
built against gtk/directfb and perhaps a future new package named
cdebconf-gtk will be built against gtk/x11.

I think you will have to build twice cdebconf's gtk files, with
different CFLAGS, like gtk2-engines.
