Public bug reported:
After a fresh install of Ubuntu Jaunty on my MacBook 3.1 I activated the
Broadcom STA driver (from System/Administration/Hardware Drivers). I
had to reboot the machine to see the wireless card in Network Manager.
The problem I noticed at reboot, is that the internal keyboard of the
laptop doesn't work. The sympton is that most of the keys don't send any
code. Pressing all the keys of the first row, the numbers, only 789 work
and pressing 0 sends /. Totally random. It is not a keyboard mapping
issue because I checked with xev that keycodes are not sent to xorg at
all. If I deactivate the driver from Hardware Drivers the keyboard
starts working again.
