D.1

USB Keyboard and Mouse

The following USB keyboard and mouse information is provided for your Type-6
USB keyboard and USB mouse:
The Sleep key on the USB keyboard behaves differently than the power key on
Type-5 or Type-6 keyboards. On a USB keyboard, you can SUSPEND/
SHUTDOWN the system using the sleep key, but you cannot power-on the
system.
If you are using a USB keyboard that is not from Sun, the functionality that you
get with a left-side keypad is unavailable.
Note – The keys for the left-side keyboard are not present on the USB keyboard.
Multiple keyboards are not supported. The keyboards enumerate and are usable
but are not plumbed as a console keyboard.
Multiple mice are not supported. The mice enumerate and are usable, but are not
plumbed as console mouse.
The first keyboard that gets probed at boot time becomes the console keyboard.
This can potentially cause confusion to customers if there are multiple keyboards
plugged in at boot time.
The first mouse probed at boot time becomes console mouse. This can potentially
cause confusion to customers if there are multiple mouse plugged in at boot time.
