Hi,
This is my first post using linux! I installed Ubuntu (thought id try the 8.04 beta release) on my machine this afternoon following some instructions i found on the internet (dual boot with Vista), but i am having some slight trouble with the Grub loader. When i boot the machine, it gives me the option to select an OS as planned. However, i just got a new enermax keyboard, and the thing doesnt work in the grub boot loader menu. I'm stumped and cannot think of a reason why this is - the keyboard works fine when loading the bios etc, but stops working when it gets to the grub loader. Perhaps it is to do with it being USB or because it has a built in USB hub??? Is this an issue with the beta release that could be solved by using 7.10?
As i said, this is the first i have used linux, and i am not familiar with its workings. However, any help you guys could give would be much appreciated...
