I've been reported this by several people but didn't yet find what's
going on. When the problem happen, can you enter xmon (with command-power)
and tell me if you can type anything there ? If xmon is receiving the
keystrokes, then the ADB hardware is still working properly.
Something else you can test is to disable powerbook power management from
the kernel. Then, when the problem happen, telnet into the machine and
check /proc/interrupts, tell me if the via-pmu interrupt count is
increasing when typing keys.
Regards,
Ben.
