Hello Rochus,

thanks for the hints about USB intialization. Beeing patient, it now works - however with strange results:

+ The original Raspberry Pi Mouse works fine.
- The original Raspberry Pi Keyboard does not work regardless of the USB port used
- The trackpoint on the Lenovo keyboard just gives y values so the mouse cursor just moves vertically.
+ The Lenovo Keyboard keys work fine.

So - I now have a working combo (Pi mouse and Lenovo keyboard).

Let me know if you need any information about my specific keyboard models or log files...

Best regards,
	Ulrich

This can be seen when attaching a TTL cable at the UART pins and monitoring the boot via console output. Maybe try with another (newer) SD card if the issue persists.
