[Bug 285908] Re: extended ascii characters not displayed on cold boots

[Daniel]

Hello everybody!

Good news:

Using the kernel option

   i8042.reset

the error does not occur (at least for me)!!!

For those who do not know how to use kernel options:

In '/boot/grub/menu.lst' add 'i8042.reset=1' to the first line looking
similar to this

kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.**-**-generic
root=UUID=*********-*****-https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/285908/+attachment/572426****-*****-*************
ro quiet splash

The line should look like this afterwards
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.**-**-generic root=UUID=*********-*****-****-*****-************* ro i8042.reset=1 quiet splash

I checked that this is working as described in comment 12.

Please try if this works for you, too.
