After rebooting I carried on using the USB keyboard, and after a while
it suddenly stopped working. The PS/2 keyboard works fine. So it seems
like the problem is 'first keyboard' stops taking input - nothing
specific to USB.
The machine was up for 1h 45m waiting at login prompt, then I used it
for about 40 mins before the keyboard stopped working.
staus info:
xev just provides a MappingNotify event - no keypresses:
MappingNotify event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
request MappingKeyboard, first_keycode 8, count 248
$ xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Microsoft Microsoft 5-Button Mouse with IntelliEye(TM) id=9 [slave
pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ CHICONY USB NetVista Full Width Keyboard id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
$ dmesg | grep CHIC
[ 1.983626] input: CHICONY USB NetVista Full Width Keyboard as
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.0/input/input3
$sudo evtest /dev/input/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1a.0-usb-0\:1\:1.0-event-
kbd
shows key events on dead USB keyboard.
So situation is exactly as before but the other keyboard has got
'jammed' instead.
(I used the 'extra' keyboard for 2 full days with no further issues last
time. We'll see what happens this time).
Any clues for other things to check?
