Public bug reported:
In about 25-50% of boots, the keyboard fails to work on boot for my Dell
Vostro 1510. It gets as far as asking for a password for my encrypted
root partition (standard setup with cryptsetup) with the prompt "Enter
password:". No response from keyboard (including no LED changes on
pressing "Caps Lock"), and progress bar continues to sweep left to
right, then right to left, then left to right...
This is new behaviour in jaunty: it was fine in intrepid (I never
encountered this problem). This is an upgrade from intrepid, not a
clean install.
The rest of the time, it's fine, and I have no problems: I can enter the
password (which appears starred out), and the progress bar grows from
the left until gdm starts.
Note that GRUB is selecting a kernel automatically, with no user
interaction. I've never noticed a problem on the few occasions that
I've needed to select one manually.
