Commenting on my own post ... >I have switched ports back and forth, with the same result: The mouse works, >the keyboard doesn't. :-/
Well, not quite true. I had booted into W2K to try something out, then hot-unplugged the USB mouse and the USB keyboard, switched USB ports (that is, put both devices back in), et voil�, the keyboard worked! Reboot to Linux: the keyboard worked! Switched off the laptop, booted Linux again: keyboard not working anymore ... It seems that it is _only_ working if I unplug the keyboard while the system is running and then plug it back in, although that is no guarantee that it continues to work after a reboot (sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't). So the issue seems to be shaky hardware, so I'm still puzzled what exactly is the nature of the problem. I'm even more inclined to point towards the laptop BIOS now, since no piece of hardware seems to be toasted. Maybe I should bring this issue up on the Toshiba support forum. Thanks to Brad for his help!
