from what i have read on the internet which is pretty much most of it now this is a very common problem that seems to be unsolved. i have checked hi and low and done everything that i can think of to fix this problem. at first i thought it was a problem with my acpips2nub.kext not loading which in leo4allv3 it doesnt, but when i managed to fix that problem still the trackpad and keyboard dont load all the time.. which actually makes sence because even if the acpips2nub fails to load it will some times (like 1 in 10 times) load the trackpad and keyboard. however when i have it fixed and loading like every time the keyboard and trackpad still loads just as much as before. what im wondering about is if there is any way to make my ps2 controller force to load on boot up? what exactly causes this from not booting up every time?

i have tryed all the enhanced or hacked ps2controllers even the multi touch scrolling one that has a daemon that loads at start up. i have tried different applepciplatform IOacpifamily appleapic kexts and none of them really make a difference. theres even a guy out there that recoded the ps2contoller so it would load more often but that doesnt make any differnce either. but i donno im gunna figure this out if its the last thing i do.. so im pretty determined to get this thing loading all of the time.. ill like post my success and what not when i do figure it out.

p.s i have a presario f500 with broadcom4311, sata hd, amd proccesor, connexant hd audio, synaptisis touch pad, here is a link to a page that has all of my specs and even pics http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4107
the laptop surprisingly runs leopard well even though it is well the cheapest laptop ever made that is actually isnt built out of plastic that is super cheap, but i mean it still is, its just not cheap... haha i would totally buy a mac but well im in college and way too poor to afford that. but ya it would be really cool if somebody already knows whats causing this prob and like help me.. thanks if you do.

How in the world did you get it installed though. I have tried numerous distros and still nothing, the keyboard and mouse dont work. I even plugged in a USB KB and Mouse and I get a unexpected resend ps\2 error.

What distro did you use and what options did you choose during the install. I would very much like to get this going

Thanks in advance

Are you on 10.5.6? and let me see you wanna put force mode as default?

Do you have links to the kexts that got everything working?

Mine is a F500 series as well.

Thanks
