    Unhappy Intermittent input devices :S

    Hi, I have been using ubuntu 9.10 for about a week and have had problems with my keyboard and track pad on my laptop. I can navigate grub (I'm dual booting) but once ubuntu starts to load then I am unable to use my input devices. Even using cap locks doesn't turn on the corresponding light.

    As fa as I can tell it seems intermittent and I can make an STR. Any help would be greatly received.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Try the Ubuntu 9.04 liveCD. I've seen fewer hardware glitches with that than with 9.10. If it works, then backup your data and reinstall with 9.04 instead of 9.10.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
