Bug Description
Using the 2.6.28 kernel in Ubuntu Jaunty (with 2.6.28.2, 2.6.28.3 and 2.6.28.4) I cannot enter the passphrase for my encrypted root partition.
Pressing any key does not produce a star on the prompt (usplash), but it does not work when using the recovery boot option, too.
This happens in rare cases with 2.6.27, too, but not every time; I can reset the computer and it will work on the next try.
With 2.6.28 however, I have never managed to get a working keyboard and have tried it a lot of times already.

Still, with the latest 2.28.5 kernel, the keyboard is not usable (and I cannot enter the passphrase).
Additionally, now I'm not stuck at the usplash prompt, but get dropped into a busybox (where the keyboard does not work still).
Attaching "sudo lspci -vnvn", if that may help.
