[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 569803] Re: upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available
I have finally managed to do another upgrade to a copy of the 8.0.4 LTS Virtual Machine (upgrade servers seem heavily overloaded at present). The symptoms are still the same: no keyboard after migration. dpkg- reconfigure console-setup did not help. But I did find out what was really the problem. The problem disappears after reinstalling VMware Tools and reboot. Now I do know that VMware Tools is needed for 'smooth' operation, but now it turns out you will not get any keyboard input at all without it being reinstalled. This I find a bit surprising since it does have an effect even on the login screen, when vmware tools have not started up yet. And I have not seen this with any previous versions. Obviously it is not that straightforward either to reinstall VMware Tools, since it must all be done with the on screen keyboard. I am not sure whether this is now an Ubuntu problem or a VMware problem or a combination of both. (My VMware is Workstation 7.0.1) But since there is a workaround, I can live with it. -- upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 569803] Re: upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available
I have done the “sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup” and the problem has gone away after reboot. The console-setup file is the same, except for the MD5 which is now an empty string. So I guess whatever is done during the upgrade process is not entirely correct Now the behaviour is completely normal, including being able to login using the keyboard.

Hm. That all looks right, although that MD5 sum is either amazingly lucky, or incorrect ;). Does running “sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup” and rebooting fix this? -- upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

It seems likely that this is a duplicate of bug #548891. What does the file /etc/default/console-setup contain? ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

OK, I'll assign this to xserver-xorg-input-evdev. Having an associated packaged is important for ensuring that the bug gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. (FYI, just a package of xorg would have been fine for this bug; xserver-xorg-input-evdev is just more specific.) Thanks! ** Package changed: ubuntu = xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I'm also going to edit your bug description to target the keyboard issue, I hope you don't mind. Please file a separate report for the flash issue. Thanks! ** Description changed: I have upgraded Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit to Ubuntu 10.4 RC without any problem. But when I upgrade Ubuntu 8.04LTS there are problems: - 1. If flashplugin-nonfree_10.0.1.218+really9.0.262.0ubuntu1_i386 is installed in 8.04LTS the whole process fails resulting in an unusable system. The package manager ends up with: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state message. - I got around this only by removing the above package from 8.04 before the upgrade. 2. When I remove flashplugin, then the upgrade process seems to run fine and results in a booting system. But the system does not accept keyboard input anywhere. Mouse input is OK and input from onboard keyboard is ok also. both above systems are running on VMware. regards, JD -- upgrade 8.04LTS to 10.4LTS RC results in no keyboard available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/569803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
