[Bug 1264543] Re: Trusty boots spasmodically with inactive keyboard .....

 

Barry Drake, thank you for performing the requested test. Given this is
correlated to the desktop environment one uses, this would appear not to
be a kernel issue, but something to do with userspace. I'll send to xorg
(Ubuntu) for them to have a look.

** Description changed:

  Every third or fourth boot, the keyboard is not found although it is
  accessible by grub2 and by pressing <CTRL>+<ALT>+F2 and withing the
  terminal.  Logout and login from the terminal followed by
  <CTRL>+<ALT>+F7 to reaccess X does not bring back the keyboard.  My
  current workaround is to use suspend and then reactivate.  This always
- finds the keyboard after which all is normal.
+ finds the keyboard after which all is normal. The problem began after an
+ update to something (I'm not sure what as the problem is spasmodic).  It
+ was first noticed some two or three weeks ago.
  
- The problem began after an update to something (I'm not sure what as the
- problem is spasmodic).  It was first noticed some two or three weeks

- I will be happy to carry out tests if someone wants to point me in the
- right direction.
+ WORKAROUND: Works in Lubuntu 14.04.
