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...

Rick
