server image has no keyboard, desktop image works

[Timo Aaltonen]

xenial server image has no working keyboard but desktop image does.

some udeb missing a module?

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

I'm trying to install a Gen8 HP Microserver, but I can't get past the region selection since the keyboard doesn't work. Tried daily xenial and 15.10 server images. 14.04 desktop image worked fine.

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

guess I could get the syslog via netconsole..

[Stefan Bader (smb)]

So I assume both 15.10 and 16.04 server installer does _not_ work. Does the 16.04 desktop installer work there? And if so, can you attach from that working Xenial at least dmesg, lsusb, lsmod?

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

so turns out that input-modules is missing hid-lenovo, as copying and loading that driver manually makes my (usb thinkpad) keyboard work.

Hi,

do you know when the fix committed will be in the daily iso?

I'm also affected by this problem.
I try to install xenial (server and netboot iso) on an Intel Nuc (keyboard used is a logitech K400 wireless) and the keyboard stops working after the grub screen. Choosing the language is not possible.

Thank you.
