(Get the code!)
I also have found this on a friends machine Dell Dimension E520 when trying to test ubuntu 7.10 and also 8.04 live CD. 7.04 was already installed (by me) and I do not recall any problems like this.
I upgraded the friends version from 7.04 to 7.10 and then immediately on to 8.04. A bit tedious I think but at least I did not want to take a risk that a clean reinstall would go wrong if something was odd about the hardware compatibility. I had lost confidence in the live cd for that hardware.
(had not seen this bug entry at that time)
For both 7.10 and 8.04, neither usb mouse nor usb keyboard worked at initial stage of CD booting, (which was disconcerting) so I had to allow the timeout to run. Once the CD was running live k/ubuntu os then both mouse and keyboard were ok.
