Bug #624695 has some of the log files that you are looking for i think.
I remember uploading those based on the guidelines.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Opinion

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Opinion => New

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  I read somewhere that different configurations/ GRUB boot options are
  passed by default depending on the hardware (something to do with a DMI
  list) e.g. i8042.noloop or similar is passed for laptop class machines
  but not desktop.
  
  Anyway, the discussion seems to be centered around input devices having
  problems being recognised/used.
  
  So I'd like this machine to be added to the list of notebooks.
  
  Gigabye M1305 Notebook
  13.3" 1366x768 display
  Intel SU2300 ULV processor
  not sure what else to include here.
  
  Problems/teething trouble experienced when ubuntu maverick 64-bit is installed:
  1. Touchpad is not recongized. fixed by adding i8042.noloop option.
  2. sometimes key characters continue repeating even if the key is nor pressed down. it is more of a problem when typing in web addresses because then suddenly the character pressed starts repeating and only stops when another character is pressed. it might also be fixable by a grub option but I am not sure what to try.
  
  That's about it. can provide more info as requested.
  
  Thanks!
