[Bug 59616] Re: keyboard not working after logging in via gdm

[Diego Ongaro]

I've determined that this issue is not related to gdm at all, because it kept happening when I tried:
As root: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
As user: startx

I also verified that the keyboard does work in gnome for my regular user after deleting/renaming the following directories:
.gconf, .gconfd, .gnome, .gnome2, .gnome2_private . It's obviously not a good solution though, because all my gnome settings have defaulted.
