AMI Keyboard BIOS Problems

[david.a.berk]

I recently sold my  AT&T 6386 WGS and replaced it with a home built
machine constructed of the following:

                        - Cache 25 Mother board by Cache Computers
                          (The one reviewed in BYTE Magazine)
                          Utilizing the AMI BIOS and C & T chipset.

                        - WD1007WA2 Hard DIsk Controller

                        - Micropolis 170  MB Drive    

I have been running AT&T UNIX System 5.3.2 with the UNIX Update without a
problem until I noticed recently that if I hit the <PAUSE> key or
<CONTROL> <BREAK> (the same key) my keyboard locks up.  The only way
to unlock the keyboard is to kill the shell from a terminal that I have 
connected to the serial port.  I spoke with AMI and they are sending a
new keyboard BIOS version kF which they have said is known to cure some
keyboard problems (My current version is k8 or E307-6063-091589-k8).

If anyone has any insight into this problem, please let me know.  I have
refrained from calling the AT&T Hotline because I know they'll give me
the business of their not supporting their UNIX on non-AT&T hardware.

Thanks;

Dave Berk
