xserver-xorg-input-keyboard package

No keyboard found in Trusty ...

Asked by Barry Drake

For the last few weeks, Trusty boots spasmodically (every third of fourth boot) with no keyboard available at the login screen. If I click suspend and then re-activate I get the keyboard back. The problem only began around three weeks ago after an update. As I don't experience a crash, I've no idea where and how to report this problem. I am using 32bit Trusty on an Asrock motherboard of very recent purchase with an AMD processor - oh - and I have tried different keyboards.

I am dual booting along with Saucy and have no problem at all in Saucy. Any thoughts please?

Trusty is not ready and not stable. I suggest you report a bug.

The keyboard works in Saucy as it IS ready and IS stable.

Thanks for your quick reply. Yes - I understand that - I just have no idea which component to report the bug against. In my view, it could be unity, or the X-server. Any thoughts about tests I might perform to narrow down where the bug is occurring?

I think the most likely area is Ubuntu's current interaction with the X-server, so if you agree, what should I put after 'ubuntu-bug'?

Run:

ubuntu-bug “xserver-xorg-input-keyboard

Should do it

Thanks. Have done. The package xserver-xorg-input-kbd seems now to be a part of xserver-xorg-input-all so I've put the bug there. I'm sure someone will move it if I'm in the wrong place. Regards, Barry.
