I am trying to install Ubuntu 9.04, however at the language selection screen I cannot get my keyboard to function. I am using a Dell USB keyboard (The model number on the back says L100) with a custom built machine. Is there some way I can fix this? I also tried to use a legacy Apple USB keyboard that came on a 1999 iMac, I think. That also doesn't work. Any ideas?

EDIT: Never mind. For those with this issue, go into your BIOS, Integrated Peripherals and make sure that USB keyboard and mouse support is turned on. Good luck!

A lot of BIOS have that as Legacy in USB support.
