Before trying this, attempt to switch to a virtual terminal using the frozen keyboard on the off chance that that hotkey combo still is received. If that works just execute the commands there, but if not you will have to do the following:
They will not contain relevant information after reboot, so what you will have to do will involve another machine on the same wireless or wired network. Install the package openssh-server (sudo apt-get install openssh-server) on the pc that has the issue, and then ssh into it to run the relevant commands. If the other machine uses Windows you will need to install putty.exe from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html. If the other machine uses either Linux or MacOS you can use the command: ssh user@hostname. With user being your account name and host being the IP address of the affected Ubuntu machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1211207 Title: Keyboard and Mouse stop working after undefined time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1211207/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
