Public bug reported: A few weeks ago my usb keyboard stopped working one day so I unplugged it and pluged it in, it seemed to be dead as not even the numlock key would come on. So I ordered a newer wireless mouse and keyboard combo to replace it. Now the wireless mouse will randomly just stop working, the red light under it is still glowing. Also the keyboard still works, both the mouse and the keyboard use the same usb reciver. If I unplug the reciver and plug it in again nothing USB can be plugged in again until a reboot, they do not even power up.
I used the keyboard and mouse set in Win7 and it worked fine the entire week but once my desktop is booted into Ubuntu I never seem to get more than an hour of mouse time before it just stops. The combo I bought is "SMK-LINK VP6610 Black USB VersaPoint Wireless Slim Desktop Suite" USB RF Wireless Optical Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-19.30-generic 3.5.7 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-19-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia .proc.driver.nvidia.gpus.0: Error: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0' .proc.driver.nvidia.registry: Binary: "" .proc.driver.nvidia.version: NVRM version: NVIDIA UNIX x86_64 Kernel Module 310.14 Tue Oct 9 11:52:41 PDT 2012 GCC version: gcc version 4.7.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.2-2ubuntu1) .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,decor,vpswitch,gnomecompat,text,imgpng,resize,move,mousepoll,imgjpeg,compiztoolbox,firepaint,grid,water,place,regex,wall,wobbly,session,unitymtgrabhandles,animation,fade,workarounds,expo,ezoom,scale,unityshell] CompositorRunning: compiz CurrentDmesg: Error: command ['sh', '-c', 'dmesg | comm -13 --nocheck-order /var/log/dmesg -'] failed with exit code 1: comm: /var/log/dmesg: Permission denied Date: Wed Dec 12 12:28:32 2012 DistUpgraded: 2012-10-19 15:26:02,357 DEBUG enabling apt cron job DistroCodename: quantal DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes GraphicsCard: NVIDIA Corporation GF116 [GeForce GTX 550 Ti] [10de:1244] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
