Problem with Keyboard support through DRAC after OS load.

[Rodrick Brown]

I'm experiencing a very weird issue with DRAC through the web console on
my PowerEdge 1950 servers my keyboard will stop functioning through the
web console once this window looses focus for example if I tab to
another window on my desktop and try to come back to the DRAC web
console none of my key strokes register to the host I only get video.
The only way to fix this problem is to reboot the host. This kinda
defeats the purpose of a remote console J 

 

Has anyone seen this strange behavior and or know what could be going on
here? This happens on all my PowerEdge 1950 servers. 

And I've tried everthing. 

 

Like I said the strangest thing is that this problem does not exist if
I'm sitting in the bios, or any other screen prior to the OS loading. 

I'm using CentOS 5.1 x86_64
