Public bug reported:
A few days ago I bought a SL640 Hama USB keyboard to use on my laptop with
Ubuntu 12.04. But I'm having problems, as it works one time out of 10! On my
laptop I have also Win7 in dual boot. And I have to say that it always works on
it.
And on my girlfriend's laptop, with Win Vista, always works.
Here are some infos:
~$ lsusb Bus 006 Device 003: ID 04d9:1503 Holtek Semiconductor, Inc.
Shortboard Lefty
As you can see, the OS recognized it but the keyboard doesn't react ...
even the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys don't blink. Regarding the legacy
support (useful for GRUB), I have found no entry in the BIOS. But I'm
not interested in it. I just want to use it in Ubuntu. However, in GRUB
it works sometimes.
Surprisingly, now I have booted my laptop: the usb keyboard hasn't
worked in GRUB but it has worked since the ubuntu login! And now I'm
typing with it. Well.. it means that Ubuntu has the right drivers and
they work. But how to "load" them always correctly?
thanks in advance!
-- Another example.
After several plug/unplug actions, now it works.
