I am so glad that you asked this.
I have not been able to get my ps/2 mouse to function with any
2.6.x or 2.4.x kernel (same ASUS MB). The problem is already
so long standing that I have completely given up on it and use
a serial mouse exclusively and no longer bother with ps/2.
(I also hate to report that since I dual boot with MS Windows,
the ps/2 mouse functions properly under the same conditions
with MS Windows 2K. The hardware cannot be at fault.)

Actually, my keyboard problems began with kernel-2.6.11, but were
quickly resolved when I used the following parameter in my lilo.conf
file:
i8042.nomux
When I use this parameter, or any other i8042 specific parameter,
with kernel-2.6.12, there is no effect. The keyboard still occasionally
comes up dead.
Thanks for the information on unplugging and re-plugging the keyboard.
I'll give that a try soon.
