Hi Folks!
Have been connecting my USB keyboard and mouse to a powered USB 2.0 hub
just because don't need extensions. Works fine, except when I do
something stupid a lock up the computer it seems the keyboard won't
work: has power, or at least the NumLock LED is on.
Theoretically I'm supposed to do ALT_SysRq_REISUB to evoke a reboot
(it's a Linux system) but rarely will that work. OTOH it rarely worked
when I had the mouse and keyboard plugged in directly to the back panel.
So, any advantages/disavantages over plugging the mouse and keyboard
directly into the back panel over via a (powered) hub?
TIA!
