fyi .. in my particular case I have since found the issue is to do with issues with support for the PS2 keyboard port in >= 10.04 and Microsoft Wireless keyboards (see thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1546149&page=2) .. by using a PS2 to USB adapter, the issue has been worked around
I figured I should post that workaround here in case a subset of the folks that are having problems may have a similar setup. I will check if there is already a defect relating to the PS2 keyboard port. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528720 Title: Keyboard stuck with irqbalance To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/528720/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
