Keyboard no working after Debian kernel upgrade from 2.4.27-2 to 2.6.8-3

["Faaiez Sallie" <Faaiez@Telkomsa.net>]

Hi Guys


Excuse me. I am a new user to Debian so forgive any errors.
I have recently installed Debian 3.1R2 onto a Fujitsu Siemens S6010 lifebook.
This installed kernel 2.4.27-2. Everything worked perfectly except for the
sound.
I read somewhere that upgrading the kernel would solve this problem.
I then ran ?aptitude install kernel-image-2.6.8-3? command to install a
newer kernel.
After rebooting into the newer kernel the keyboard did not work on the
logon screen in X.
The keyboard does not work in recovery mode at the command prompt either.
I have tried ?dpkg-reconfigure console-data? as well as ?dpkg-reconfigure
xserver-xfree86? without any success.

Any assistance to solve this problem will be appreciated.

Regards
