If it is a kbd concern and I am not saying it is not this is a notebook with the dual boot to kunbuntu and until today I was able to type when booted into linux, but as of right now I am confined to windows as I cannont even sign into yahoo e-mail on linux, but am forced to use windows. Any additional thoughts on this concern
I will continue to google kbd in hopes of a revelation

  I am guessing you have a usb kbd?
  did you un/plug the kbd and try again?

  can you cycle the leds on it (capslk, numlk, scrolllk)?

  what kbd settings did you choose during install?
