Hi all!

I just got a Dell Inspiron 4100 and decided to install antiX. Unfortunately, I can't get the onboard keyboard working. There are no apparent errors in the xorg.0.log. (attached). Also,using Xorg -configure does not give a solution. However, during the boot process I can the appropriate characters on the screen. As the preliminary keymap is loaded, there is no response from the keyboard anymore... Perhaps useful to add that an usb keyboard does work. Any pointers? Searching didn't provide me more useful hints on solving this issue. Please let me know if you need additional info.

Regards and thanks for your time, Bert
