I have a machine that is running Ubuntu 12.10 on one SSD and Windows 7 on a second SSD. Both OS's were working great. I purchased a Nvidia 660 Ti video card to use while gaming in Windows. After I installed the new video card, I no longer have control over my Wireless Logitech Keyboard (K270) and Mouse (M510). They still work fine in bios and Windows, but the second I boot into Ubuntu, they stop working.

Does anyone know how I can fix this problem, or help me possibly troubleshoot it?

I installed Nvidia drivers from here: http://ubuntuxtreme.com/howto/nvidia-drivers-installer-script/ But the keyboard and mouse stopped working before I changed anything in Ubuntu. I do have a wired Keyboard and Mouse that I can use to troubleshoot.

Thanks!
