9059.0. "About keyboard hung." by VAXRIO::63222::Manoel () Thu Mar 06 1997 16:36

	Hi everyone

	The machine is an Alpha 1000 4/266.
	The system is OSF/1 3.2C.
	The Firmware is 3.0.
	The console monitor is VRC15-KA.
	The command sizer -gt shows "at164"
	The path about keyboard hung has already been applied.(see below)
	Keyboard still hungs.(model ???)
	Is this the right patch ?
	Could this be a hardware problem ?
	Thanks in advance for any help.
	Regards.

PROBLEM:  (TKTB49381,GOZ100613,UTO101179) (Patch ID: OSF350-306)

On systems with PCXAL, LK411, and similar keyboards, after logging out of
a session on the workstation monitor, sometimes the keyboard stops 
working.
A reboot is required to clear the problem.

  I had similar problems with keyboards and patch OSF350-306.

>PATCH ID: OSF350-306     SUBSET(s): OSFHWBIN350
  This patch doesn't exist anymore! There is another patch for keyboard
  problems, Patch ID OSF350-245. This one fixed our customer's problem.

>/usr/sys/BINARY/pcxal.o         subset OSFHWBIN350
>CHECKSUM: 59766     19     RCS: pcxal.c      Revision: 1.1.39.3
  This file has a different version in patch OSF350-245.

>/usr/sys/BINARY/ws_device.o             subset OSFHWBIN350
>CHECKSUM: 64526     53     RCS: ws_device.c      Revision: 1.2.46.2
  This file won't be patched with patch OSF350-245.

9059.2Found it, but with different check sum!!VAXRIO::63222::ManoelFri Mar 07 1997 17:1631
	Hi, Fran�ois

	The patch I found OSF350-245 has pcxal.o with sum equals 55537.
	Does this work fine ?
	If not, where can I get the one you mentioned (59766).
	Tks.

  Sorry about Re.-1, here's the next try:

>        The patch I found OSF350-245 has pcxal.o with sum equals 55537.

  This ist the correct checksum of the patch which worked at cutomer's site.

>        If not, where can I get the one you mentioned (59766).
  This checksum is from the failed patch which isn't available anymore.
