I have had the same problem with my keyboard, however it is not a USB keyboard.
Mine is a standard 104 key generic Dell brand keyboard, plugged in to the PS/2
port on my desktop PC.
I've noticed this problem in gdm, kdm, and even in the recovery terminal... the
only link I managed to find betwe
I just did another fresh install from the Flight 6 install disc, and this
problem still ocurrs.
It seems it is only in the 2.6.15-19-686 kernel and restricted modules.

This problem is still happening in the new kernel update 2.6.15-20-686,
although it doesn't seem to be happening as much. I've noticed that the moment
the num lock light turns off (if the keyboard is not going to lock up), is
during the usplash sequence, when it is loading the kernel modules.
I have just managed to get my PS/2 keyboard working by unplugging it and
plugging it into my PC's other PS/2 port (labelled for use with a mouse)
Please see bug #48877 for my full post, PC specs (if needed), and current
