Description Bill Crawford 2002-03-24 09:43:08 UTC 
Description of Problem:
After a suspend/resume cycle, the keyboard seems not to work properly;
specifically I can't get any shifted keys.  Running "service keytable reload"
appears to fix it.
This probably isn't the right component to log against, but it's not obvious
what is.
Yes, the hardware *is* crap ;o)

Please let me know what other information would be helpful.

I've a hunch this may turn out to be a hardware problem.  It is a rather
battered old laptop.
Comment 2 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2002-03-25 13:21:03 UTC 
It likely is crap hardware (even though I can't reproduce it on my crap Latitude C800). 
Does adding "keytable" to the RESTORESERVICES= entry in /etc/sysconfig/apmd do any good?
