Bug#567756: xserver-xorg-input-all: keyboard not working after squeeze upgrade
Now here's an observation that may help...
The Macintosh USB keyboard has an "eject" key in the upper right hand
corner. It has a symbol on it that looks like a triangle with an
underline (commonly used for "eject" on audio CD players and video DVD
players).
Even though the rest of the keyboard is non-responsive when X is active,
that key (the eject) works reliably!!!
Is it being recognized at a lower level than the others?
Here's another observation...
Very occasionally, once in a long while -- when I hit a keyboard key
(other than eject), it will echo on the screen. But only for one
key-hit -- then it immediately goes back to being unresponsive.
Here's yet one more...
This box is running Squeeze. I have a box running Sid right next to it
(infact the two machines share a keyboard and monitor via a KVM switch)
and the Sid box does not have this problem. The versions of the xserver
software on the two machines are identical, incase that helps...
