Environment: SLP 9.1 kernel-default-2.6.4-54.5 AMD Athlon 1.1 GHz Stock kernel, not locally built. I am wondering if I am having an intermittent hardware problem or if anyone else is experiencing this. I have a Microsoft Natural Keyboard connected to my machine and occassionally I get in a situation where all keyboard input causes a BEEP and does not register. The mouse still works fin and KDE is happy as a clam. If I am typing in an xterm and hold a key down about a second it will beep and then echo the character every two key strokes making working no fun. If I leave the system for say a half hour, the problem goes away and typing is now normal again. Anyone else experiencing this type of bizarre behavior or is it a personal problem (falling keyboard)?
