I'm new to linux/ubuntu and I have encountered a little problem: After installing x2x my laptop keyboard no longer works. The x2x system worked great - I was able to control my laptop from the desktop which was ssh'd into it... but the keyboard on the laptop no longer works. I have a dual-boot, and when I boot into lion (it's an early 2008 macbook) the keyboard works fine.
I switched on my laptop this morning (HP Compaq nc6320) as usual and tried to log in, only to find that neither trackpad nor keyboard were working! If I reboot into a recovery mode shell, the keyboard works until I move on to normal boot. If I boot from an Ubuntu install disk (run from CD), both trackpad and keyboard work. Everything seemed OK last night when I shut down.
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.
Hi guys,
I recently upgraded to 12.10 from 12.04, I have a wireless Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse (both ise the same dongle) my mouse works but the keyboard doesn't (it types random things) but my wired keyboard works just fine, is there a fix for this?
Sample: the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog (wired keyboard)

I just recently decided to install the most recent Ubuntu version on my Dell XPS 15z running Windows 7 (in hopes of using it to code).
However, after installing, I realized that neither my keyboard nor my mouse worked with Ubuntu. I couldn't move or type. It works with an outside keyboard and mouse, just not my laptops trackpad and keyboard. How do I fix this?
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.
The usb keyboard that I have connected to my Dell E6430 running ubunthu 12.04 with gnome 3 does not open the activites overlay when i press the "windows key" on the usb keyboard.
It works just fine when I use the laptop keyboard.
I used
~$ sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i
To find what the key code was and in both cases (laptop and external keyboard) it is leftmeta.
Hello,
When I try to install Ubuntu 12.04 AND 12.10 on my old computer, the keyboard and mouse stop working.
