Holy Moly Alan, thank you! I'm happily replying from my osol laptop. I

Hi,
The keyboard on my OpenSolaris 2009.06 laptop has locked up (each keypress
produces a beep). I believe this issue arose after attempting to use a Logitec
cordless presenter (which didn't bode well for my presentation).
The lockup only occurs after GDM starts. I can use the keyboard when I log into the failsafe terminal, so I'm looking for some help troubleshooting the issue.
Check the Accessibility preferences in the GNOME keyboard control panel,
to ensure you didn't accidentally enable SlowKeys mode, which requires
you to hold down a key for a few seconds before it's accepted, and beeps
when you don't (used for people with hand tremors or poor motor control
such that they bump extra keys a lot).
