Public bug reported:
This problem relates to support for Logitech Unifying Receiver, a USB
dongle that communicate with one or more wireless devices. In this case,
the devices consist of a keyboard and a mouse.
This bug appears in two contexts:
1) Ubuntu Precise alternate-installer. Firstly the boot menu appears. At
this point, the keyboard is fully functioning and allows selecting the
language. After "Install Ubuntu" is selected from the menu, the text
installer appears prompting for the keyboard. At this point the system
no longer responds to key presses on the keyboard. Plugging in a USB
keyboard allows use of the newly attached keyboard, but not the existing
wireless one. In addition, the newly attached USB keyboard often stops
responding at some point during the installation procedure.
2) Ubuntu Precise encrypted LVM password prompt. After booting up a
system that has been installed with LVM encryption, Plymouth appears and
asks for the password. At this point the system no longer responds to
key presses on the keyboard. Plugging in a USB keyboard allows use of
the newly attached keyboard, but not the existing wireless one. When the
login screen appears, the wireless keyboards works again.
This issue did not arise in Ubuntu Oneiric, which uses the Linux v3.0
kernel.
So I suspected it might be a kernel issue. I have tested several different
kernels in a Precise system from the kernel-ppa with the following findings:
v3.0-oneiric: OK
v3.1.5-precise: OK
v3.1.10-precise: OK
v3.2-precise: NO
v3.4-rc4-precise: NO
I have tested this on three different machines with both Oneiric and
Precise with the same results.
