[Bug 993242] Re: 12.04 Alternate AMD64 freezes on language selection

[Jon Johnson]

Same issue - Logitech K350 wireless keyboard does not work during
alternate install.

It also does not work post install to put in lvm whole disk pass phrase.
So this is not just an installer issues, the keyboard is not being
recognized anywehre prior to login prompt.  Once the LighDM prompt comes
up the keyboard works fine.

Title:
  12.04 Alternate AMD64 freezes on language selection

Status in “debian-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  UBUNTU 12.04 AMD 64 BIT ALTERNATE

  quad and six core AMD Phenom II
  LOGITECH WIRELESS K520 KEYBOARD
  NOTE: all equipment has loaded previous Ubuntu desktop and alternative systems without problems

  PROBLEM:
  Using the 12.04 ALTERNATE AMD64 iso, the installation freezes at selecting Language.
  It installs OK with:
  1. desktop version
  2.  a PS/2 keyboard.

  Other wireless keyboards not tried (I only have logitech which, as I
  say, have worked previously).

  SUGGESTIVE OF a wireless keyboard driver not being installed before
  the start of the install when using the AMD64 alternate install - as
  the keyboard works fine until selecting Language.

  No reports can be submitted as obviously none are generated.

  The alternate version is required to install 12.04 on my business
  computers.
