both the hints from vincent and michael are very interesting... could this be related to legacy usb devices being attached? nick and michael, could you try removing any usb keyboard or mice you might have, until the login screen?
also michael's comment about using the keyboard during the grub menu is pointing in this direction... i want to thank everyone for their work so far. i feel we're getting closer to squashing this bug... -- 2.6.27-7 kernel breaks USB https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281737 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
