Attempted translation:

Hello,

I am trying to login at the console on my RedHat 9 system, but my
keystrokes are not echoed on the screen?

Guessed assistance:

Can you get the keyboard to do anything? Does the key combination to
switch to another console screen work (e.g. crtl-alt-F1)? Can you
toggle the caps-lock light? Is "scroll-lock" on?

Well, if you can't toggle the caps-lock light then the keyboard isn't
being detected / powered at all. I'd check the cable. Did you get a
warning from the BIOS during POST about "keyboard not detected"?

Do you have gpm running? If so, then moving the mouse should give you
a little text cursor at the system console. If gpm is running and
moving the mouse doesn't give you a mouse pointer then you have
plugged the keyboard into the mouse port and vice versa.
