Hi Sean I'd suggest booting into recovery mode (or whatever its called, the second grub menu option) and run
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg There are some options related to keyboard in their which may help (?) Of course if you have no keyboard at this point (before x starts) then we can assume something more difficult to fix, like a problem with usb module or something.
