I have been using a Northgate Computer Systems "Omnikey/102" keyboard
with my AT&T PC6300 for over a year.  It has a nasty habit of going to
sleep on me.  I have reseated chips within the keyboard with
no real improvement.  When it goes to sleep, I re-awaken it by unplugging
from the computer and replugging it back in.  This gets to be annoying
especially when I have to do it several times over a two hour period.

I seek any counsel that can help me solve this problem.  Thanks much.
