i have an USB keyboard, which once in a while goes useless. it is a fairly new device and should not be defective, but i'm not sure how to tell if this is a problem from the device or from the kernel or ?
i do not have a scanner installed. no idea why colord-sane process is there at all. i would be happy to get rid of that message somehow as it might be related. i do have cups and USB printer installed but it has not been a problem at all. just for some reason my system is picking on USB keyboard. i've adjusted bios in several ways (using legacy USB support, turning it off, turning on and of handoff to high speed, disabling ports i'm not using) recently i turned on bios to wake up system using keyboard but none of these things have made a difference ( also including moving the keyboard from USB3 to USB2 ports and back, using USB extention cards or main board io plugs, etc). unplugging keyboard and plugging it back in does wake it back up. i've run the most recent kernels from debian testing and experimental. my CPU is supposed to be power efficient so perhaps there is some way that is timing out my keyboard when there is no activity, but this is not always true as i've had it stop working when i'm typing... i've checked whatever i can via bios, but not seeing any- thing that tells me how to limit the system from turning off keyboard. bios is updated to most recent version. i can easily tell udev things via device ID and such so if i can use magic words there that is fine with me... i just don't know those words yet. :) in looking at the logs i see various messages like: ...
