Marked as Confirmed. Hardy is supposed to have a tickless kernel. I
don't know if that is having an impact with your laptop. When your
keyboard is frozen, how do you shutdown? If you have access to another
computer, install openssh-server and login via ssh so you have a remote
connection to your laptop from another machine. Then when you keyboard
freezes, go to the remote machine and examine the some log files.
Install openssh-server: (laptop)
>sudo apt-get install openssh-server
On the remote machine
>ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
or
>ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] (whatever your IP address for the laptop
is: ifconfig to find out)
Use this remote terminal to examine messages
>dmesg | tail
Look for errors in mouse or keyboard or I/O or network.
To shut down the laptop remotely (you want to avoid using the power
button to shutdown if possible)
>sudo poweroff
This will help narrow down what is going on.
