Since this only needs a new hypervisor binary and not a full set of
tools etc to reproduce I think it can be simplified to replacing the
previous "apt-get source" with
	git clone -b staging-4.3 git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git 
	cd xen

Then "make -C xen", install the xen.gz and boot it as you did
previously.

Right, I should have remembered to mention that. The above
seems slightly incorrect in that you need to either "cd xen" or pass
"-C xen" to make.

The "cd xen" is to move into the cloned tree, the "-C xen"
to to only
build the hypervisor subtree of that directory, so both are needed.

(IOW you could also make -C xen/xen)

Did that, rebooted and still no keyboard.

FWIW, I pulled the drive out and slapped it into a Dell Optiplex 7010 I have as
a spare
workstation, booted it and keyboard works.

Cheers,

Further to this, I went back to stock everything.
3.13 kernel with debian's xen 4.3.0.
Moved the internal USB connector to the other port on the motherboard.
(This wire connects the 2 front USB connectors on the front panel of the
chassis)
and rebooted with the USB keyboard plugged into the front panel.

Keyboard works!

Moved the keyboard back to any of the 4 rear onboard USB ports, and keyboard
does not work.
Either of the 2 front side USB ports worked.

Downed the server, moved the internal USB connector back to the first USB slot
it was
plugged into originally, plugged the keyboard into one of the 2 front panel usb
ports and booted it up.
Keyboard does not work.

Keyboard works in all cases and ports at the grub prompt. (unless bios usb
legacy is disabled)

This is so strange.

I found a server with an Intel S2600CP board in it, slapped the drive into that
and booted
into xen, keyboard works. (plugged into rear onboard usb ports)

Either it's this particular model of Intel board(S1200BTL), or just this one
board that I have.
If I can find another S1200BTL board, I will try it, but I'm happy to close
this bug and
just blame the board, the BMC or the C204 chipset.
:)

Cheers,
Mike
