I've got a weird annoyance on one of my #Linux laptops, and maybe someone knows something I don't... (details continue in self replies)
When I shut the lid, the laptop goes to sleep. Sometimes, when I open it, and it wakes up, the keyboard doesn't work at all. I can fix this by closing the lid, letting it sleep again, and then opening it. Usually that works on the first reopen, occasionally it takes 2 or 3, and on very rare occasion, I have to force restart or ssh in and reboot.
