I'm pretty sure this is the problem I had. I installed Lucid from scratch on a multi-boot system. (The upgrade from Karmic botched). Everything seemed perfectly fine except within half an hour, sometimes in only a few minutes, the mouse would freeze. My PS2 keyboard continued working fine, but nothing from the USB mouse. I tried plugging and unplugging and plugging in a different mouse but nothing would happen. There was still power to the USB but no response.
After some searching, I tried adding "acpi=off" to the grub boot options. Now it's working just fine. -- Keyboard and mouse freeze after grub https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/555169 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-keyboard 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
