Re: USB keyboard quirks may not be properly catered to in bsd.rd kernels

The keyboard is a Newmen GM610 Gaming Keyboard I shot on amazon.

Not exactly. In the meantime I tried the keyboard on another host (some
ancient O-series Zotac box) with the same result: At the boot prompt
the keyboard still works, but once the kernel is booted the keyboard
is dead and has to be connected to another USB port.

The Zotac host is 10 years old, the RJ43 was released just a few months
ago. Both are Intel hosts with Intel chipsets, though. If necessary I can
provide dmesg output of this host as well, as soon as I have access to
the hardware again.
