Public bug reported: When attempting to login to 14.04 the keyboard on my laptop is usually unresponsive. Caps lock seems to work and shows an exclamation mark in the login prompt but typing in the password box does nothing and pressing up/down keys to select a different user does not change the user.
It seems the only way to get around the problem is to click on the menu items in the top right corner (panel) and then the keyboard becomes responsive.
