Linux 7.0 install problem
I have problem when installing Linux Red hat 7, my keyboard becomes inactive/dead. I tried changing to another keyboard, I've got the same problem. What is the reason ?
Thanks in advance Howard |

Red Hat Linux 7 is a *very* old distribution of Red Hat. If I recall correcty, v7 uses a 2.2.x series kernel (in fact, I believe USB support could only be added via a kernel patch while 2.3.x was maturing). In the 2.2.x days, USB support was very primitive. You'd be better using Fedora, for instance, where USB support has since matured.

I checked out that site, they asked me to pay if I'd like to use redhat, do you know any other sites ?

You could try http://www.fedora.com/ YMMV, and I'm not going to bother digging through it.

Hbaw, where the heck are you looking?
linuxiso.org -> Fedora -> Fedora Core 3 Test(2.90) CD 1: http://www.linuxiso.org/download.php...i386-disc1.iso CD 2: http://www.linuxiso.org/download.php...i386-disc2.iso CD 3: http://www.linuxiso.org/download.php...i386-disc3.iso CD 4: http://www.linuxiso.org/download.php...i386-disc4.iso If those links are too slow or they don't work, try the handful of mirrors associated with each cd. Just click on the cd-folder to see all the links. |

I had the same issue, and quickly resolved it by checking a couple of places.
The linux software (fedora) doesn't seem to make the USB native connections. Try going into your CMOS/BIOS as the system is booting up, and Look for something like "integrated peripherals" or "advanced settings", and look for enable legacy USB devices. Make sure its set to enabled. Mine resolved instantly, yours may take a reboot, or re-install.
