 My unmodified B2 with q3a25 has the USB keyboard (and a trackball, and an
 ethernet adapter - three devices all told) plugged in at a hub, which I
 attach to the XO-1.5.  If the hub is plugged in when I power on, and I
 have held down the 'check' game-button -- then often (but not always) any
 attempt by me to use the external keyboard while OFW is in control results
 in the XO-1.5 going into a never-ending repetition (cycle) of boot - chime
 - boot - chime - boot - chime  -- etc.

 On power-on -- <esc>, then 'probe-usb' (from the XO-1.5 keyboard) results
 in:
 {{{
    ok probe-usb
    USB2 devices:
    /pci/usb at 10,4/hub at 0,0
    /pci/usb at 10.4/hub at 0,0/mouse at 4,1
    /pci/usb at 10,4/hub at 0,0/keyboard at 4,0
    /pci/usb at 10,4/hub at 0,0/mouse at 3,0
    /pci/usb at 10,4/hub at 0,0/device at 1,0
    USB1 devices:
    ok
 }}}
 A subsequent '?usb-keyboard' (from the XO-1.5 keyboard) appears to do
 nothing.  If I then attempt to use the USB keyboard, the XO-1.5 goes into
 the never-ending boot - chime cycle.
