> Hi !
> 
> 3 years and no patch from grub developers :-| ... I've got a Compaq D510 
> which I cannot boot with grub (freeze) because it has no keyboard 
> controller (unfortunately, it will be the case for more and more computers).
> 
> I've suggested to the grub ML that the code from syslinux should be used in 
> grub (and in the kernel they also used syslinux's gate a20 code).
> 
> Maybe we should provide an alternative grub package which contains the 
> patch ?
