Bug Description

At first startup, Dell Vostro 1510 keyboard doen't works. So, I reboot it from gdm, and at second startup it works.

I have tried put i8042.nopnp at the end of the line kernel options in grub and so I reconfigure it with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub" but without success.

The sequence of events:

1- I plugged my laptop in AC power source.
2- switched on and the ubuntu starts. The keyboard don't work.
3- So I reboot it and keyboard works.
4- Powered off it without remove the AC power of laptop.
5- switched on again and the ubuntu starts. The keyboard WORKS.
6- Powered off it again without remove the AC power of laptop.
7- switched on again and the ubuntu starts. The keyboard WORKS again.
8- Powered off it and remove the AC power of laptop. Wait some time...
9- switched on and the ubuntu starts again. The keyboard DON'T work.

Every time that I remove the AC power source of the laptop and starts it. I the same problem with slackware. With windows and FreeBSD keyboard works every time.

Attached is the dmesg when keyboard is not detected.
