Nevertheless this describes a problem of the mouse on an Apple laptop
when running under Ubuntu, so it's very much on topic here.

Bug description:
I have the new Slim USB Apple Keyboard and in Hardy Heron (Beta) when I first boot up the alphabet keys work perfectly, but once I type in the numpad or a number, nothing happens. After nothing happens I'm not able to use my alpha keys, either.. When I type alphabet keys after trying a number the alphabet keys produce numbers like '4' and '3'.. And many of the keys don't do anything..
I have tried setting the keyboard up as default, and as an Apple keyboard by going to System > Prefs > Keyboard -- but nothing works.
If i then unplug the keyboard to reboot the keys usually work fine until I hit a number key or the keypad again.
