I wonder if it was one of the earlier PS/2 keyboards. As I recall some of those weren’t plug and play, so it would have been less of a bug and more just that the hardware wasn’t designed to be hot swapped.
- toomanybeersies 5y ago> As I recall some of those weren’t plug and play Due to its how its implemented on the motherboard, standard PS/2 isn't hot swappable. Any support for hot swapping is the exception, rather than the norm. I always thought it was a bit ironic that VGA and RS-232 cables (with D-sub connectors) could be mechanically attached with screws, even though they were hot swappable. Yet PS/2, which used screwless mini-DIN connectors, wasn't hot swappable.
