I would like to add that I DONT have a trackpad or touchpad installed,
and use an MS Wireless Multimedia Keyboard V1.0A (WUR0335).. This issue
presented itself and the keyboard would just stop working. The menus in
10.04 would highlight (i.e Applications, Places and System) but no
dropdown would occur. I disabled any desktop effects to no avail.

At first, I kept hitting the power button on the machine to switch off
and on, as the menus would not respond, however, as un-scientific as it
is, if i pressed my hands on as many keys as possible, I was given an
Ubuntu Notification then my keyboard stopped working.

The notification looked like a trackpad, so I looked in the notification
folder, found the icon, and found what normally uses it for
notifications (BTW - There was no record of the notification in the
log!)

>From there, it led to this bug, and to this fix :

gconftool-2 --type string --set
/apps/gnome_settings_daemon/keybindings/touchpad ""

~Which runs at every login. I know, elegant, eh?

This is a fresh 10.04 install.. One thing I did notice tho, is bug
192508. That bug could be related to Remote Desktop.. Is there a
possibility this could also be? Does anyone have RD Enabled?

Thanks,

N
