Package: linux-image-2.6.17-1-686
Version: 2.6.17-4
Severity: important
I've been using the 2.6.16 without incident on my IBM A30. When I boot the
2.6.17-1-686 kernel, all seems all right ... AT FIRST. But then at some
arbitrary point, perhaps an hour later, sometimes less, the keyboard stops
being effective under X. When I ask to start a new X session (using the
mouse only, natch), the keyboard works OK in that new session.
I'd normally think it's an X bug, but it -always- happens when I boot
2.6.17, while it -never- happens when I boot 2.6.16.
