RE: Announce: kdb v4.4 is available for kernel 2.6.10

All:
I tried to get Kdb working on SuSe 9 ia64 box (kernel version
2.6.5-7.111.19). Turns out that the keyboard/machine goes into a hang state.
I have a usb keyboard!

Googling around I found that Keith had disabled the USB keyboard support
some time back due to changes in some APIs (kernel version
linux-2.6.5-SLES9_SP1_BRANCH).

Is this something that could be a cause for my problem? Should I think about
upgrading my kernel to 2.6.10 (hoping that the issue's been fixed in this
version)?

Thanks,
avinash
