[Bug 528720] Re: Keyboard stuck with irqbalance
Lars Ljung, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc4 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results.

fyi .. in my particular case I have since found the issue is to do with issues with support for the PS2 keyboard port in = 10.04 and Microsoft Wireless keyboards (see thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1546149page=2) .. by using a PS2 to USB adapter, the issue has been worked around I figured I should post that workaround here in case a subset of the folks that are having problems may have a similar setup.

Hello, This weekend was starting to work on an old p4s800 machine that I was given. I saw two issues one was have issues with the network card responding (on-board).

To disable irqbalance you can edit /etc/default/irqbalance and set ENABLED=0. I tried this and I still get a keyboard hang (mouse seems fine). This has reached PITA severity in my book :-( Note: I am able to login, but as soon as start keyboard input after that I get a hang within 6 to 10 chars typed.

[Bug 528720] Re: Keyboard stuck with irqbalance
My PC with a Nvidia card works perfectly and is not affected by this bug and my PC without Nvidia card (without any graphics card at all ) is badly affected by this bug to the extent that Ubuntu 10.04 is unusable (some of the programs I would like to run like blender3D freeze as soon as I move the mouse cursor in 3D space). This problem also affected this PC in Ubuntu 9.10 (when I noticed it for the first time). I would have to agree with Kron K's comments that this might be a graphics issue. I'm not convinced that this bug is totally a keyboard and mouse issue. Although the PC affected doesn't have graphics card installed it does seem to have a built-in intel type graphics chip with a minimal amount of memory to speed to 3D graphics minimally. Also the program most badly affected by freezing uses 3D graphics extensively. When I first installed Ubuntu 10.04 it froze almost immediately on start-up every time but after selecting to boot in safe graphics mode the problem essentially seemed to disappear but I still can't run Blender3D in Ubuntu 10.04 because it still freezes every time. -- Keyboard stuck with irqbalance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528720 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Picked up the 2.6.32-24 kernel when updating today - system continues to run without freezes as long as irqbalance disabled, as I reported back in June. However I then re-enabled irqbalance as an experiment, straight back to the immediate freezes at logon time as in the bug description. Disabled irqbalance again, and all is well.

The same problem on my notebook Dell D830 with a docking station. I installed a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 tree weeks ago. Before I used Ubuntu 9.04 without problems. Now I randomize get freezes on GDM Login. Both keyboards, internal and PC/2, also the synaptic touchpad and the external mouse are frozen. All other devices seems to be right. I can shut down the system with the power button and reboot. Or I can switch the external mouse and keyboard on a PS2-USB-Converter. After I plug-in this, I can log in and work mit the notebook.

[Bug 528720] Re: Keyboard stuck with irqbalance
Thanks, I had the same problem, this worked for me. I removed irqbalance. I didn't had the problem with Ubuntu 9.10 too, just with Ubuntu 10.4.

[Bug 528720] Re: Keyboard stuck with irqbalance
In Lucid irqbalance installed by default, so I can't run the liveCD, because the keyboard and mouse don't working.

[Bug 528720] Re: Keyboard stuck with irqbalance
There are two others confirming this bug so I'm changing the status to confirmed. To disable irqbalance you can edit /etc/default/irqbalance and set ENABLED=0. Also, I think it's safe to just uninstall it. ** Changed in: irqbalance (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- Keyboard stuck with irqbalance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528720 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to irqbalance in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

I can confirm this bug. I also have a P4 and my system was unusable after an upgrade to 10.4.
