grep through your /var/logs for USB-related messages. Maybe something is going on. I have a PS/2 keyboard but my USB mouse is fine. Once in a while my USB hard disk will bork itself and, because of LVM, I'll have to reboot to fix it. Sometimes my SanDisk USB memory card reader will mess up too. I often wonder if it's something to do with the USB controllers on my motherboard (which is pretty old). If that doesn't turn anything up, I'd suggest trying a different USB keyboard, and a PS/2 one if possible. If that doesn't help, I'd suggest seeing a psychiatrist; perhaps your original theory of your slowly going mad is correct. ;) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
