I just upgraded to edgy last night/today and my keyboard is no longer working (at all. no Ctrl+Alt+*, no Num Lock, etc) after I log in through gdm. It does work in gdm, in gnome fail-safe mode, in fluxbox, and in gnome for my other user account, but it fails to work in gnome for my regular user account.

i have tried manually resetting the keyboard map to US English 104 and using the reset button in gnome's keyboard preferences, but that doesn't work either.

I'd suggest bumping up the severity of this bug, too. If people upgrade and can't use their keyboard, they're going to have trouble accomplishing anything at all.
