So after the tedious process of backing up all of my data, and doing a clean install I'm sorry to say that the issue is still there...
I have found that I don't need to completely shut down my system I can just suspend it to get things working again ... which leads me to believe that this really is a software glitch and not a hardware one... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1211207 Title: Keyboard and Mouse stop working after undefined time Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Lately (last week or so), my mouse and keyboard have both stopped working after some time (no fixed amount of time as far as I can tell). The only way I can continue using my computer is shutting the whole thing down and restarting it. To date this has only happened while browsing the internet (although not the same sites). Any help would be greatly appreciated. If more information is needed don't hesitate to ask, but please add detailed how tos as I'm not a computer guru, in any sense of the word.
