Broken USB Keyboard and Mouse after latest updates

[Psychobudgie]

Following an update this morning the usb keyboard and mouse are no longer responding. I can get USB to function if I revert to kernel 2.6.24-19.

In the kernel log for 2.6.27-7 it doesn't show the usb devices initialising which it does show quite clearly in the latter.

Anyone else had any similar issues?

yeah. it's really annoying. try ctrl+alt+f3 or whatever to get to another tty. That's been working for me, which seems to suggest that it's a problem between X and the new kernel.

It doesn't work here. Devices aren't responding at all. Have had to revert back to the older kernel to get things working again.

I am having this same problem, only I am using what is supposedly the LTS. Really. Irksome. Trying to revert to the older kernel hasn't helped, either.
