Re: [Finally solved :)] USB keyboard stopped working after update

Ah, lovely. Thanks for posting a full informative answer.

If you'd like to reinstall grub to point to your external partition it shouldn't be hard at all, just check the wiki and create a new thread if it goes awry.

No, the external /boot partition didn't help with my Grub problem and there is no other need for it, so I'll just remove it.

The very worst thing you can do with free software is to download it, see that it doesn't work for some reason, leave it, and tell your friends that it doesn't work.  -  Tuomas Lukka

hi again,
glad you could solve your problem with the external boot-part.

for me, the pbl. with the external keyboard was solved with 3.5.0.
and it was only with external keyboard, since the laptop keyboard worked always.
and the i915/ivyBridge performance seems to be acceptable. no xserver uses 100% & syslog errors up till now....

have a sunny day

yeah my main issue was not having glibc fully updated.  the input searched in the new location while glibc hadn't put anything to there.  it should have been placed as a version dependency.  thanks for info.
