I have the same issue with 8.04, but I'm running XEN, if it matters...

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# uname -a
Linux flipper 2.6.24-19-xen #1 SMP Sat Jul 12 00:15:59 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux

In my case, I have worked with various combinations of PS/2 and USB
mice/keyboards.  I usually work with a USB keyboard and mouse and a PS/2
port-attached mousepad.  When the freezes occurred initially, it would
behave similarly to what is described above, with the system continuing
to run, but unresponsive to keyboard (USB) events and mouse (USB)
clicks, although usually the mouse movement was still detected and the
cursor moved about.  Interestingly, the mousepad on the PS/2 port
continued to function, and if I plugged a PS/2 type keyboard into the
machine, it would work too, enabling me to regain control of the
crippled machine.  During these freezes, I am also able to ssh into the
box and recover via reboot too.

Then I tried using only the PS/2 input devices, but the freeze occurred
only a few minutes after starting.  In this case, I was able to plug the
USB keyboard and mouse in and continue operating that way!

So far, that's all I know.  I guess this casts suspicion on a particular
layer of mouse/keyboard logic.  I hope this gives helpful clues to
whomever might be able to fix this problem.
