Unfortunately I'm just the X guy, I'm not really intimately knowledgeable about what's going on inside gnome-power-manager so can't give much advice here on out.
It sort of feels like something is stealing the keyboard/mouse devices away from X, and then the vt-switch remaps things back together possibly. I'm not at all certain what could do this. On a lot of hardware there are separate devices for the keyboard, mouse, and hotkeys; on others these are mixed together in weird ways. I could vaguely guess that some weird combination could lead to things getting stolen from X in unexpected ways, but that's just a vague guess. It would show up by running `xinput list` and analyzing how the hardware's inputs are mapped. -- Losing keyboard and mouse control when changing screen brightness with fn + arrow under intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285323 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
