Obviously this is a problem. ** Changed in: Ubuntu Status: Needs Info => Confirmed
** Description changed: When I am logged into X (edgy), at some point the keyboard will completely stop responding in X. On the console it still works however: I can switch using ctrl+alt+n to a console and work from there. ctrl+alt+backspace works, too. This happens to be the easiest way to solve the problem, as X will be restarted. The mouse keeps working however,so luckily, I am able to save my work before restrarting X Moreover, when my keyboard dies I am not able to enter any of gnome's menus (applications, places, systems). When I click one of these menus, something like an empty tooltip (maybe an empty menu) appears, but no menu. I don't know what to do to trigger this bug; at this time it seems to occur randomly to me. If you have any suggestions to help debug this problem, please notify me. + + This occurs only in the 64bit release. -- Random keyboard failure in X https://launchpad.net/bugs/58884 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
