I've installed Ubuntu 7.10 and my external USB keyboard is now creating problems for me. It suddenly/randomly stops working after a while. I need to plug/unplug it again to make it work.
Any idea?

just an idea. Look into your BIOS, if you find something like "USB
legacy support". Toggle this and see, if it helps.

kind regards

No, there is no such option for me in BIOS...so no resolution of the issue.

Any other idea?

We have to assume that no error messages are displayed in the syslog
when your USB keyboard stops working... can you confirm otherwise.

nothing changes in the syslog...actually..the keyboard stops responding if there is any change in the power...say from AC power to Battery mode. I just figured it out...otherwise the keyboard continues working fine.

Bonjour,

I have these lines in my xorg.conf file:

Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbVariant" "latin9"

And latin9 works on login screen but not when I am logged in.

Does anybody know what is the file in my personnal config which
overrides the general config?

Thanks.

I've had a Logitech cordless desktop on my primary desktop for the
last few years, and every once in a while the number pad would just
"go out" - the <enter> key and num-lock would still work, but of all
the others would do nothing except the 5, which would pop-up a
subwindow in some app on the screen that didn't have the focus.

I thought this was aproblem with the keyboard, so I just switched to a
wired keyboard, and voila - the number key pad misbehaves exactly the
same way.

Is this a Linx / RHEL / CentOS bug? Has anyone else seen this?

I'm going to reboot to see what happens, but I'd be really, really
disappointed if it all just comes back to life (meaning that it *is* a
problem in the system and not the hardware)....

Let us know if you can, and I'll report after I reboot.

Thanks.

Erk - the (wireless) keyboard behaves just fine after a reboot. This
leads me to suspect a problem in either the kernel or the desktop, but
I think I've tried restarting the gdm before for this with no luck
(had to reboot), so I more strongly suspect the kernel (driver/s).
The mouse works just fine in both cases. It's an EX110 wireless
desktop, BTW.

My son uses the exact same hardware on his Windows machine, and it
never does this. In fact, the first time this happened, Logitech sent
me a whole new wireless set, and that's the one I've been using ever
since, and this has happened before a couple of times. Once it just
went away by itself, the other time I deliberately rebooted to fix it.

I should probably point out that I use the PS2 ports instead of the
(optional) USB connection - does anyone know if that works better (I
suspect it might, since the USB drivers seem to be more robust than
most).

Rebooting is not a good solution, even if it works as a "fix."

You can't guarantee that, either way. It could still be a problem with
the hardware (firmware) in the keyboard and when you reboot it gets a
"kick" and restarts.
