The keyboard still works because I can press CTRL+ALT+F1 or F7 and switch back and forth but nothing shows up on the screen when I am in the GDI and try to type. I can type just fine on the F1 screen. Sorry if my terms aren't correct. I'm still pretty new to linux. I'm running SUSE 10. It doesn't matter if I use a USB or PS/2 keyboard. I had this happen a few weeks ago on a laptop I loaded with SUSE 10 and then after a couple reboots (i think) it started working again. I've rebooted this PC about 20 times and i'm still having the problem. I've tried booting to init 3 and then doing start X. Same problem. I'm using KDE but this is happening with all the GDIs for my user and for root. Any help would be great.
