Package: console-setup Version: 1.221 When trying to install a Supermicro AS -1114CS-TNR server via the BMC HTML5 web console using debian-12.11.0-amd64-netinst.iso I was expecting to be asked what keymap to use for the keyboard but this step was just silently skipped.
I think the reason for this is that https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/console-setup/-/blob/master/debian/keyboard_present.sh expects a keyboard to use the USB class 03-01-01 but the keyboard in this case does instead appear as 03-00-01. I took the device detection loop and gave it some output like so: === for d in /sys/bus/usb/devices/*:*; do echo $d class=$(cat "$d/bInterfaceClass") # 03 = Human Interface Device subclass=$(cat "$d/bInterfaceSubClass") # 01 = Boot Interface Subclass protocol=$(cat "$d/bInterfaceProtocol") # 01 = Keyboard echo "$class:$subclass:$protocol" case "$class:$subclass:$protocol" in 03:01:01) echo "found keyboard" return 0 ;; esac done === The result on an installed system: === /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-0:1.0 09:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-0:1.0 09:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-2:1.0 08:06:50 /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-0:1.0 09:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1:1.0 09:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1.1:1.0 03:00:01 /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1.1:1.1 03:01:02 /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1.2:2.0 e0:01:03 /sys/bus/usb/devices/3-1.2:2.1 0a:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/4-0:1.0 09:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/5-0:1.0 09:00:00 /sys/bus/usb/devices/5-2:1.0 09:00:02 /sys/bus/usb/devices/6-0:1.0 09:00:00 === Also the fallback to check /proc/bus/input/devices will not work either, here is output again from an installed system: === # cat /proc/bus/input/devices I: Bus=0003 Vendor=0557 Product=9241 Version=0100 N: Name="Linux 5.4.62 with aspeed_vhub SMCI HID KM" P: Phys=usb-0000:05:00.3-1.1/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:05:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1.1/3-1.1:1.0/0003:0557:9241.0001/input/input0 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=sysrq kbd leds event0 B: PROP=0 B: EV=120013 B: KEY=1000000000007 ff800000000007ff f2beffdf73cfffff fffffffffffffffe B: MSC=10 B: LED=1f I: Bus=0003 Vendor=0557 Product=9241 Version=0100 N: Name="Linux 5.4.62 with aspeed_vhub SMCI HID KM" P: Phys=usb-0000:05:00.3-1.1/input1 S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:05:00.3/usb3/3-1/3-1.1/3-1.1:1.1/0003:0557:9241.0002/input/input1 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=mouse0 event1 B: PROP=0 B: EV=1f B: KEY=70000 0 0 0 0 B: REL=900 B: ABS=3 B: MSC=10 I: Bus=0019 Vendor=0000 Product=0001 Version=0000 N: Name="Power Button" P: Phys=PNP0C0C/button/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0C0C:00/input/input2 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=kbd event2 B: PROP=0 B: EV=3 B: KEY=10000000000000 0 I: Bus=0019 Vendor=0000 Product=0001 Version=0000 N: Name="Power Button" P: Phys=LNXPWRBN/button/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input3 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=kbd event3 B: PROP=0 B: EV=3 B: KEY=10000000000000 0 I: Bus=0010 Vendor=001f Product=0001 Version=0100 N: Name="PC Speaker" P: Phys=isa0061/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input4 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=kbd event4 B: PROP=0 B: EV=40001 B: SND=6 === For reference here is lsusb -v output for the device: === Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0557:9241 ATEN International Co., Ltd SMCI HID KM Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 2.00 bDeviceClass 0 bDeviceSubClass 0 bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 64 idVendor 0x0557 ATEN International Co., Ltd idProduct 0x9241 bcdDevice 5.04 iManufacturer 1 Linux 5.4.62 with aspeed_vhub iProduct 2 SMCI HID KM iSerial 0 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 0x003b bNumInterfaces 2 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 0 bmAttributes 0xa0 (Bus Powered) Remote Wakeup MaxPower 2mA Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 0 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 3 Human Interface Device bInterfaceSubClass 0 bInterfaceProtocol 1 Keyboard iInterface 4 HID Interface HID Device Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 33 bcdHID 1.00 bCountryCode 0 Not supported bNumDescriptors 1 bDescriptorType 34 Report wDescriptorLength 63 Report Descriptors: ** UNAVAILABLE ** Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0008 1x 8 bytes bInterval 4 Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 1 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 3 Human Interface Device bInterfaceSubClass 1 Boot Interface Subclass bInterfaceProtocol 2 Mouse iInterface 4 HID Interface HID Device Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 33 bcdHID 1.00 bCountryCode 0 Not supported bNumDescriptors 1 bDescriptorType 34 Report wDescriptorLength 79 Report Descriptors: ** UNAVAILABLE ** Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x82 EP 2 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0008 1x 8 bytes bInterval 4 Device Qualifier (for other device speed): bLength 10 bDescriptorType 6 bcdUSB 2.00 bDeviceClass 0 bDeviceSubClass 0 bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 64 bNumConfigurations 1 Device Status: 0x0001 Self Powered === -- Patrik Lundin
