Oh man, this is going to be so fun. I'm on an Aspire 8930G (8.10 amd-64). Rebooted yesterday morning, then found the same problem described here -- my keyboard and touchpad stopped working on both the gdm and kdm login screen. (Doubly annoying since apparently the monitor just turns itself off and I end up typing in the dark when I switch TTYs with the nvidia driver, but that's another issue). Same for my USB mouse, except that it did work after unplugging it and plugging it back. It seemed strange at the time since everything worked as expected in the LiveCD environment, and I hadn't touched xorg.conf at all, then started to get really annoying until I just decided to reinstall and the problem went away.
Figures that I decided to update everything again, so I might be facing this same problem tomorrow morning. I did check my apt logs before reinstalling though, and noticed that, other than a few xfce4.6 updates that seemed irrelevant (stuff like orage and such) I also got an upgrade for udev 144 from a PPA. But for some reason I didn't copy the log file to check later (or the info from the PPA, argh I'm stupid), and now that I've been reading through all this I doubt it's udev's fault at all. Either way I'm going to keep an eye out on this. The update-rc.d workaround looks promising, so I hope I can apply it somehow from the LiveCD if it does go south later on. -- [intrepid] mouse and keyboard stop working under gdm and gnome https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254840 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
