Download HealthCheck and see if the N900 detects if the keyboard slider is open or closed.
If it doesn't it's a hardware problem.

If it does detect the slider:
Chances are mce crashed, as root type stop mce && sleep 1 && start mce (or reboot the device).
If that doesn't work try reflashing.
If all that fails it could be the LEDs, would appreciate it if noobmonkey could add my script as a keyboard test

Have you overclocked and undervolted your n900? Then i would sugest to raise the voltage settings.

I didn't overclock my N900 .
HealthCheck can detect if the keyboard slider is open or closed .
I tried "stop mce && sleep 1 && start mce" and I got this :

Reboot doesn't help .
Thank for your help

I had the same problems once. Try to remove the battery and put it in again. This worked for me.

engine3_mode is missing, odd....
It's not even creating it.
Try
Code:
echo run > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0032/engine3_mode
Then start mce again, if that doesn't work check the mce.ini file, does it have the keypad module loaded in the top part?
Code:
cat /etc/mce/mce.ini | more
Modules=display;keypad;vibrator;led;battery etc...
If all that fails try
Code:
apt-get --reinstall install mce
Doesn't seem to be a hardware fault.
