[Bug 269851] Re: Bluetooth Logitech Dinovo Edge Keyboard/Mouse does not work anymore

2010-08-14 Thread TheFinePrint
Both a google search and a local search in the bug database reveals that this is a recurring problem, and at least every other Ubuntu release breaks the keyboard support. This is particularly problematic because it's nearly impossible to fix without a second keyboard, and since most live CDs don't

Summary refers to Lucid beta. The problem is also present on Lucid final, as installed from the alternate CD. I only have diNovo-keyboards in my disposal, so even the workarounds are a bit of a hassle since I can't log on without some older live CD. -- Bluetooth Logitech Dinovo Edge Keyboard/Mous

2008-11-20 Thread TheFinePrint
The problem with the evdev-solution is that it causes problems for those users that may be on the physical machine. E.g. when I log into my home server over FreeNX the keyboard now works. However if I log in locally the keyboard is broken (same problem - except now in reverse). Hence one must ei

The important part was setting the keyboard to Evdev-managed keyboard. Whether it is the remote or local or both that does the trick I'm not sure of. Changing the print-screen combination is convenient to allow a print screen to be executed remotely, instead of locally only. -- Regression: Conne

Judging by the remapping this appears to be the same issue that affects NX-sessions. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/289918 The difference here is that the keyboard works as expected with no ill effects *locally*, but broken when in an NX-session. I cannot find any .Xmodmap-files anywhere

Public bug reported: I used the alternate install CD on a Dell XPS laptop to set up Ubuntu with default settings for a fully encrypted setup. I have since expanded crypttab to read a USB-stick to get a keyfile, or if that fails ask for a password. This worked without a hitch, and continue to do
