Keyboard and mouse don't work at all in login window after new install



Keyboard and mouse don't work at all in login window after install.

I just now finished installing.

It says this after reboot:
"Gnome Desktop Manger"
...
"Username"
but my keyboard won't type anything
and I can't use alt-F2 to go to another
shell to kill X-windows.

Only thing I can to is turn the power off to reboot.
I can't even rlogin from another machine since 
I configured this new system as a DHCP boot for internet surfing
(my present in house network is 10.x.x.x based and this was
the first machine in my plan to migrate to DHCP).

I guess it is a problem that I did not know
which serial port the mouse is on... maybe?
How can I find that out?
Maybe the knoppix cd will help in this regards?
