What about the secondary keyboard

November 23, 2006 1:22 PM from

Hello,
I have installed multiplicity on my two pcs.
As it was working fine, I disconnected the second keyboard and the mouse.

When I booted the pcs next day, the secondary pc stopped during the boot-process and reported
System Configuration updated
ERROR
0211 Keyboard
Press (1) to resume, (F2) to Setup

The keyboard of the primary pc is at this point not jet recognized by the second pc.
So I switched off pc2 and connected the secondary keyboard again.
During next boot-process everthing worked fine, and when MP was active I could control both pcs with the primary mouse.

Is this behaviour normal?
Do I have to keep the second keyboard connected to pc2, only in order to enable the boot - process?

There should be an option within BIOS to disable automatic detection of keyboard/mouse. Since this is where you seem to be stuck this might help you.

Multiplicity doesn't begin to work until the computers boot into windows/welcome screen.
