Dear Marc,
I am happy, that there is still work on the A8N-E, as I own such a board.
Unfortunately the PS/2 keyboard port is not working yet (see also build tutorial from the wiki).
I already applied your patch and it ended in a grub or filo shell.
From a second PC I can access the filo shell and type in commands over minicom. For grub2 this does not work.
So do you have an instruction for me, how to test that your patch is successfull?
Do you need the minicom log?
Andy, This patch affected a platform that used the same SIO but at the other input clock rate. If you get the minicom log then the patch is working since the clockrate affects the UART rate. So, Please send your Acked-by:
I also see the ps/2 keyboard problem with this SIO. It seems to be something with the linux keyboard init. The keyboard works in filo and then stops when linux loads. I have been able to get it unstuck by reading the input buffer by hand. My guess is there is something left in buffer that linux isn't expecting. Probably a KBC bug. USB keyboards work fine in linux on my platform so this was a lower priority but I will look at this more today.
