Hello: Sometimes, when I boot up my machine, it'll boot normally but when I get to the login prompt, my keyboard and mouse get no response on screen. The cursor keeps on flashing and everything seems to be working (I can telnet in and reboot the machine) and there is no error message so I have no idea what to fix. Sometimes when I start X window, I get the same effect: All my little applets and cursors are flickering like they should, but my keyboard and mouse act like they've been pulled out of the computer. Sometimes it happens when I exit X. There seems to be no method behind it, because it will happen randomly like once a week. My cousin runs a debian box at work and he says he gets the same problem there, yet not on his debian box at home
I'm running debian linux fully updated to the most current potato with kernel 2.2.13 (but it's been happening since at least 12) anyone have any ideas at all? I've found this a bit annoying and have no idea what could cause it. Thanks, - Harlan
