It could be a faulty keyboard. I had a keyboard for about 6 or 7 years
and it still works great but only because the buttons starting to not
work well anymore so I decided to get another keyboard. After doing so
I discovered that my linux stopped locking up when it first start
XWindows after almost every other boot. I did not think it was a
keyboard causing it because Windows works fine with it but certainly
even if the keyboard "seems" to work fine it may still have a problem if
you are experiencing strange result.
