Another day on OS X, and another bizarre behavior...
300-MHz SmurfTower, 384 MB RAM, Tiger.3
I'm using my fav ADB Datadesk Switchboard (left-handed people are in
their right mind), and a Kensington USB Mouse (optical, two buttons,
scroll wheel). No kensington software installed.
For the 2nd time now, I've lost control of the system! Couldn't type
letters into windows. cmd-w etc didn't close windows. Basically, the
keyboard stopped working. Then I noticed menus not dropping as
quickly as normal when I use the left mouse button. But they're fast
for the right mouse button. And when I use the scroll wheel, things
scroll horizontally not vertically???!!!
What did I do to cause this?
The only way to clear it I've found is to actually shutdown and
reboot... ???!!! :(
help?
LOL

Dan,
I've noticed a similar problem with Panther. For me, the mouse
continues to work, but the keyboard quits responding to everything
except Force Quit. Try sending a force quit with the keyboard, then
hitting escape. Let me know if that brings your keyboard back.
Thanks.
Daniel
