[PLUG] Keyboard Strangeness


My server has been up for over a year without a reboot. 99.9% of the time
I log in via SSH on my local network. Just recently when I attempted to
login on the 'real - plugged into the PS2 connector' keyboard I get
strange characters like ^g when I hit g and it is basically unusable. I
cannot login. I tried killing the term but it stays the same. It also
seems the other virtual sessions are hosed (F2,F3, etc.) if it even
switches to them.

Is there anything else I can do to reset the hardware without reboot which
I expect would fix it? I don't want to spoil my uptime record!

Doug
