Do you have a II-series machine?  (Or rather a machine with II-series ADB
hardware)?

That's about what I remember mine doing under HWDIRECT kernels.  If I were
you, I'd switch to the MRG version of that kernel.  John recently found a
bug in his II-series support that caused this kind of behavior.  He's got
a patch for it, but I don't think that it's in -current quite yet.

With John's latest patch, it works just fine for me with a HWDIRECT kernel
(and it works just fine with MRG kernels as well).

Let us know if this doesn't work.

Later.
