I'm seeing something similar when installing 10.04 in a VM using vmware

password. After logging in the keyboard functions as expected.

For what it's worth, the "enhance contrast in colors" option doesn't
bypass the problem on my machine.

Interesting. Since it does sound like it might have something to do
with the graphics hardware of all things, maybe the exact machine
matters. I had the original problem on an early 2008 macbook pro (last
model before the unibody machines came out). I haven't tried the

hof1063's method worked for me. After enabling the "Enhance contrast in

That is really odd. Also worth noting is that from the log in screen, if

I'm having the same problem with Ubuntu 10.04 beta 2 with all updates as
of today (April 12th). The system boots fine, it loads GDM, I can click

Followup: I tried installing 10.04beta2 in a new VM directly from the
x86 desktop install CD and got the same behavior - can't enter a
