Bug Description
Binary package hint: grub2
Keyboard is not working in GRUB 2 when laptop reboots, so I cannot select OS or skip timeout. Works perfectly on normal startup.
I have HP 6735s laptop and USB keyboard A4Tech KL-5UP.
This started after clean install of lucid. Had not such problem in karmic with same keyboard and GRUB 2.
Regards,
isotope.

Ok so we need to narrow down the cause.
Does the normal laptop keyboard function correctly, when the USB one is not attached?
Have you tested the USB keyboard on another machine or verified that the batteries and connection are ok and is not suffering from failing hardware? Please post back.
