keyboard mapping changes after laptop runs out of battery

[Yuv]

To whom it may concern:

Apology if I assigned the bug to the wrong package, my understanding is that keyboard layout is an xorg thing.

I have just installed Xubuntu 14.04 on a bare metal laptop. I closed the lid thinking it would hybernate. Instead it depleted the battery and died. On reboot the block of keys between 7, 0, m and / was mapped to the numeric block in cursor arrows mode. I would expect it to stay mapped as it was before the power outage.

Some more observations:
* I assigned this bug to the wrong package. It is not xorg. After removing the default GRUB_HIDDEN stuff (really not a good default IMHO, it prevents users from learning things, and it also prevents users who may want to dual boot Windows) I verified that the bad key mapping is present at the grub stage as well. At this point I do not know what package to assign this bug to. Maybe kernel?
* I found a workaround (but should not be): reboot into BIOS. Make no change whatsoever in the BIOS, just turn it off and then on again and things are back to normal.
* I can reproduce this consistently, 100% of the times
* The laptop, is a Vaio Pro 13

Yuv, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg 1338581

Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information.

As well, given the information from the prior release is already available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.
