</div>No, I have not had any keyboard problems, as<br>
far as I can tell...<br>
<br>
But what I was doing at the time was typing text<br>
on a forum via Firefox... so it is interesting that<br>
you brought this up! I was still typing away when<br>
all of a sudden, the BSOD popped up.... weird. Is<br>
it Halloween yet?<br>
<br>
Can't say that it's the keyboard fault or the person<br>
beating on the keyboard mercilessly. :)<br>
<br>
I just don't know. I think I will just wait and see if<br>
this keyboard "coincidence" comes up again....<br></blockquote><div><br>My keyboard was seizing up as well today. Actually, as I flipped between terminal sessions (with "focus-follows-mouse"), the cursor would NOT activate and clicking on a Gnome menu would not drop the menu down. Restarting the gnome-session fixed it. So, it may be the kernel or it may be one of the other updates that came flying down the pipe this morning.<br>
