[Bug 1511511] Re: USB keyboard stops working after pressing extended key

 

The keyboard was bought a few months ago and the bug have always been
there. I've tried the keyboard both in upgraded systems and in fresh
installations to no avail.

Following your instructions, I have just tested it right now using the
mainline kernel (at the URL you provided) and the bug is still showing,
so I proceed with adding the tag 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Title:
  USB keyboard stops working after pressing extended key

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  USB keyboard Cougar K500 gaming keyboard has some additional extended
  keys, all of them making the keyboard stop responding if pressed under
  linux. The device is recovered only by unplugging the USB and plugging
  it again.

  The keyboard has been tested under Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS, Ubuntu 15.04
  and Ubuntu 15.10 (the latter running as virtualbox guest). All tests
  failed with exactly the same behaviour.

  USB ID is: "060b:500a Solid Year".
