Are you sure it's not a hardware problem ?

Sure.  I get this problem and at Dell inspiron and at general desktop. ;)
Comment 3 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-12 05:20:27 UTC
Do you have the same problem with xf86-input-evdev-2.1.3?

Yes, I have the same problem with xf86-input-evdev-2.x.x.
;)
Comment 5 Eugene 2009-03-12 10:39:27 UTC
Problem repeat!
Suddenly keyboard   don't  work again.
1. Work only: Shift, CapsLock and Ctrl.
2. Others keys don't work
3. But though, for example  BACKSPACE and F10-F12 don't work alone, I may restart Xorg server press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, and I may switch to console press Ctrl+Alt+F1-F12 too.
4. If I switch to console (don't Konsole, without Xorg), then all work properly!
5. If I restart xorg-server, keyboard work properly again up to next accident, which emerges randomly.
6. After change keyboard result : None.
7. This problem repeat and at my notebook and  at my desktop (x86-64 and x86 accordingly).
8. Sinle way resolved this bug at random time period -- RESTART XORG-SERVER.
9. Mouse work properly.

I think that this bug is BLOCKED.
With hope, this information help resolved with bug.
Comment 6 Eugene 2009-03-12 10:44:04 UTC

It's not a blocker.

Why?  I don't use my system?
And may potentially broke my important data!
Comment 11 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-12 15:39:23 UTC
You should trust jer. If he says this cannot be considered as blocker, it's true. Please don't argue about such a trifle like the correct severity.

For the time being you could still go back to the old way having input devices configured. Put 
  INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" 
into your /etc/make.conf, recompile xorg-server, add config sections for mouse and keyboard to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and don't forget to set 
  AutoAddDevices "false"
in your xorg.conf as well. I hope I didn't miss anything.

Please attach your Xorg.0.log and tell us which version of the nvidia drivers you're using.

Thanks

Q: My keyboard setting in KDE-4.2.1 was:
       setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us,ru -variant ,winkeys
   instead: 
       setxkbmap -model evdev -layout us,ru -variant ,winkeys

  May this impact at this problem ?

Try disabling all KDE-specific keyboard options, maybe that'll help...

Thanks

I enable  evdev in kde setting (setxkbmap -model evdev -layout us,ru -variant ,winkeys)
Don't help. At notebook keyboard hangs again(((((((((

Comment 18 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-13 16:19:16 UTC
Could you try *disabling* keyboard options in KDE?

Could you also try not running kde at all, but twm instead (using startx)?

Please also attach the full output of "dmesg".

Thanks

This is  my dmesg log for Dell inspiron 9400
Comment 20 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-14 06:52:27 UTC
Please get back to us once you've tested twm instead of kde.

Thanks

Although this bug description is vague, I think I am also experiencing it.  All of a sudden, the keyboard stops responding, I can't type any text.  I think each time I noticed it because I pressed alt-tab but nothing happened.  Now the weird thing is that I can restore normal functionality by just holding down the modifier key (usually Alt, but I use Meta) and moving a window slightly with the mouse.
This bug has happened to me twice today, so I would say there is a good chance that it will happen again soon.  dmesg has nothing interesting in it, but at the end of Xorg.0.log is this:

(--) SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: touchpad found
(II) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: Device reopened after 1 attempts.
(II) Sleep Button: Device reopened after 1 attempts.
(II) Power Button: Device reopened after 1 attempts.

I don't recall ever seeing that in the log before this bug happened.

This bug only happens on my laptop, which is an HP/Compaq nx8220 (x86).  I have added xorg and friends to package.keywords, though, so am running xorg-server-1.7.4.901 and evdev-2.3.1.  I have INPUT_DEVICES="evdev synaptics" and am using KDE-4.3.

Could we reopen this bug?  What kind of additional information would help?
