[ubuntu] Keyboard failure after 12.10 upgrade

http://ubuntuforums.org – Hey guys, I have a big question and I was wondering if any of you can help me out. I recently upgraded my Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10. Upon booting it up, I have complete access to my keyboard and mouse. The problem arises however, once I select Ubuntu in my dual boot option, I lose mouse and keyboard functionality. My computer has a Nvidia driver in it and my keyboard is a logitech keyboard. I looked online and apparently using a usb keyboard doesn't fix the problem. I really need help. I can access recovery mode but once I am there I can't actually use my keyboard/mouse to choose any op (Hardware)

Hi guys,

Hello,

I have a Logitech K800 keyboard and a Logitech Anywhere Mouse MX paired in Windows to a single Unifying receiver. They work great in both Windows and Mac. The mouse and keyboard work for some amount of time, usually 1-30 minutes, before dropping. If I press the volume or calculator buttons on the keyboard, both the mouse and keyboard drop.

I recently upgraded from (I think) 11.04 to 12.04 on my desktop (dual boots Ubuntu & Windows 7). From GRUB, I have 3.2.0-40-generic (normal & recovery mode) , "Previous versions" , and "Windows 7" If I select "Previous versions", then there is 3.0.0-12, 2.6.38-11, 2.6.38-10 and 2.6.35-23.

Booting into the linux versions gives me strange results, I've summaris

I installed Fedora 17 on my laptop, where I use a keyboard (Logitech K120) and mouse (generic USB mouse) connected to a hub.

Then I noticed that neither the keyboard nor the mouse worked.

Hi I have a strange problem. My mouse and keyboard are working without a problem most of the time. But sometimes (no specific situation, can't reproduce) there's a bug and the mouse is jumping around for 1-2 secs and the keyboard is pressing like all keys at once. After those 1-2 seconds its possible that either the keyboard or mouse or both don't react anymore, and I need to restart.

On our SuSe 11.1 PC keyboard and mouse are no more responding although it did work properly until yesterday. We shut down the computer yesterday evening and today they do not work anymore.
