I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit) to a clean harddisk and have the same problem. I didn't have the problem with Ubuntu 9.10.
When I start linux, the login screen starts.. sometimes.. - if I wait a few minutes (without typing or moving the mouse) the computer freezes - if I type my password, it looks like a key is constantly being pressed, and the computer freezes - if I log in fast enough, and wait a while, gnome freezes with just the desktop loaded or with a key constantly being pressed. .. but always one of the three. * I used a PS/2 keyb&mouse, and an USB keyb&mouse, and had the same problem. * Without keyboard, I still have the same problem with the mouse. * I disabled the wireless network drivers. * chose in the installation for an encrypted, and later an unencrypted homefolder, still had the same problem But.. When I use, in GRUB, the recovery mode, and use the root shell, I don't have any problems. I can use the "startx" command to start gnome. Firefox works, Nautilus works. info: kernel 2.6.32-21-generic GNOME 2.30.0 2 x Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.40GHz NVIDEA Geforce4 MX440 64MB RAM 524MB RAM ** Changed in: linux-rt (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- keyboard and mouse freeze after login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364530 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
