PS2 Keyboard and mouse dead in FC3 on Dell Precision 530

[J. Epperson]

Sent this last night, but my registration was apparently not complete 
and it did not go to the list (not in archive, anyway)>

The i get an error when booting FC3 on a Dell Precision 530 ("i8042.c: 
Can't read CTR while initializing i8042").  The keyboard and mouse are 
then "dead" from there on--can't press a key and trigger kudzu before 
the timeout, can't type a username/password on the X11 login screen, 
etc.  Odd, since they both worked fine all the way through a graphical 
install, just not with the resulting kernel config.  Reading suggests 
apci/apic problem in i8042.c code, I've tried the suggested noapic and 
noacpi kernel line parms, but nothing's working.  I did include SELinux 
in "warn" mode in the install, FWIW.

Installed FC1, and everything worked ok.  Will try FC1-->FC3 upgrade 
tonight.  Suggestions welcome.
