I had earlier today I had a bit of trouble with openSUSE 11 and the keyboard
on my laptop. The keyboard started off working, pressed the escape key during
boot to see the boot process, and I was able to login, but after that my
keyboard stopped working. Kwallet, K3B, and Konsole was unable to see any key
presses. When I told it to shutdown the shutdown process hung, I had 5
messages saying that there were processes hanging it did not say what
processes all it have me was a PID which I was unable to switch to a different
terminal to see what they where. This is the first time I seen this happen,
and was wondering if this is a common problem.

My laptop is a Acer Aspire 5100, AMD Turion 64 bit dual core processor, and
ATI Radeon xpress 1100.
