[comp.unix.xenix] Keyboard lock-up problem with SCO XENIX

rosso@sco.COM (Ross Oliver) (10/25/88)

Here is an update on solutions to console keyboard lockup    
under SCO Xenix versions 2.2.0 and 2.2.1.

First, several computer manufacturers have keyboard firmware 
upgrades which solve the problem.

Second, SCO Support has a Support Level Fix (SLF xnx058) which does not 
break LED functionality.  This is available at no charge to supported
SCO customers.

Third, there is an adb patch documented in the SCO Xenix Release Notes  
for versions prior to 2.2.2.  This patch does break LED functionality 
and should only be used as a final resort.

The problem is fixed in SCO Xenix versions 2.2.2 and up.
