Logitech Cordless Elite keyboard doesn't type in Gnome
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:10:50 EST
Description of problem: I have a Logitech Cordless Mx Duo set with a Logitech Cordless Elite Keyboard it comes with. I can type on the login screen of X, in the bash prompt without X loaded, in X screensaver, and in KDE... But in Gnome, when I try to use any application such as gedit within Gnome, I cannot type. All I get is the cursor flashes whenever I attempt to type. Additional info: I have this all attached to a Belkin SOHO-4port USB PS/2 KVM switch, too, if it helps, but I don't really think it's relevant. I haven't tried doing it without the switch yet or using the USB connectors on the switch (I will, so remind me to say what happened if I forget). I'm using the PS/2 connectors on the keyboard.
Maybe Gnome is a better place for this (I am not really sure).
I can also type when I log into Gnome as root.
Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.
