Keyboard and mouse are not working in laptop!!!

[sasikumardr]

Hi Friends,
I am using Lenovo 3000y500 series laptop. I installed OpenSuse 10.3. Installation was perfect and It worked properly for some days. Now I find a problem, Keyboard and mouse(touchpad) are not getting detected while booting which works in windows. When i went through some forums I got an advise to give kernel paramater "acpi=off" . It worked, but problem is now OS support for Laptop(telling about battery details) Lost. Sound also not working.So I removed this parameter. Next advise I got was to press shift key while booting. Some times it works and sometimes not.
When I tried to re install suse, Setup also shows same problem.

Can anyone suggest What to do to make linux work properly.

Lenovo 3000 Y500 776136q

Hi all,
Now I noticed one interesting thing. When I am booting Laptop in AC power above problem solved. But I didn't understand why it is not detecting battery at boot time.
