I have a laptop with a USB keyboard and mouse. If I boot it under a

anyone know what the problem might be?


Are the built-in keyboard/touchpad ps2 or usb?
Does dom0 see all the usb hosts, when using xen4?

The relevant lines in dmesg are (for a non-xen boot)

input: Macintosh mouse button emulation as /devices/virtual/input/input3
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /devices/platform/i8042/serio0/input/input4
input: PS/2 Mouse as /devices/platform/i8042/serio2/input/input5
input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint as /devices/platform/i8042/serio2/input/input6

so it looks like ps/2. I haven't noticed any usb devices missing. I have also now checked that the keyboard still doesn't work even if the USB keyboard is unplugged.
