Mandriva 10.1 and dead keyboard

by jdw Jul 11, 2006 3:44PM PDT

Mandriva 10.1 32 bit.
Toshiba Satellite M45.
Dual boot with XP.

Today, the keys don't work at all - except
when I login as "root".

I've seen others with the same problem.
Also, the pointer has a tendency to freeze
and the system crashes.

The installation went okay.

Heard any of these same complaints?

How to re-sync the keyboard? I downloaded and
installed all available updates today with no
change (logged in as a non-root user, that is)

TIA.

Jerry

Did you do any playing? Install any "really fun" software?
