Apparently this is somehow a left-over device file, or so. In the gdm log (see below) I found an error message about the keyboards device file, event18 in my case. Whereas I can cat the file and see output once I use the keyboard, indicating that it actually works concerning kernel/driver.

Ignoring. (EE) PreInit returned 8 for "Apple Wireless Keyboard" -------------------- Via the error I found a related bug at redhat: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811534 As it is basically complaining because the file exists, a workaround is to remove the file before suspending. So I placed the command in a new pm script. Not nice but perfectly doing the job for now. /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/70bluetooth ------------- #!/bin/sh # case "$1" in hibernate|suspend) rm -f /dev/input/event18 ;; *) exit $NA ;; esac ------------- ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #811534 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811534 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075478 Title: Apple wireless bluetooth keyboard not working after suspend/resume To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1075478/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
