[Bug 871241] [NEW] No keyboard input after logging in

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After recent updates in Oneiric Beta, I lose all keyboard input after
logging in. (Keyboard input works in LDM, and will work in a recovery
session, but as soon as I log in to Unity or Unity 2D, the computer will
not respond to any keyboard input.) I can't switch to a TTY terminal,
Ctr+Alt+Backspace and Ctr+Alt+Delete don't work...no keyboard input
whatsoever. If I switch to a Guest Session (using the GUI) and then
switch back to my account, however, the keyboard will then work. Of
course, if Unity/Compiz aren't working, there is nothing I can do but
use the power button to restart the computer.

Following a suggestion in an older post, I tried renaming /run/udev to
/run/udev.old, and deleting all files in /run, but neither seemed to
help. Apparently that problem was fixed by an update in July, but I
experienced this problem for the first time in the last day or so.
