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. -- "We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than only freedom can make security more secure."
