Bug Description
When I boot Ubuntu Dapper Drake Flight 4 the keyboard dies. From the time the drivers are loaded during boot, until I enter gdm the keyboard works and I am able to swith Num Lock and Caps Lock on and off, when gem starts I can no longer do this, and if num lock is on is switched off. I am able to log in by unplugging the keyboard and plugging it back in. When I then log in I am, however, unable to switch between keyboard layouts. (GB and DK).
I have looked in messages, Xorg.0.log and every other file in /var/log without finding anything that resembles a relevant error message.
My machine is an AMD 3500+ running the AMD64 version of flight 4. The keyboard is a logitech cordless.

Is that an USB keyboard? Does syslog or messages or dmesg have anything about that? Does that happen if you try an another login manager than gdm or use startx?
