Fwd: input device freezing in kubuntu 14.04

Hello,


I recently fresh installed kubuntu 14.04 on my pavilion AMD64 with new 1TB
HDD. I am using the stock PS2 keyboard and a logitec wireless USB mouse.

At random times the input devices become unresponsive requiring me to
REISUB.  It happens sometimes after several hours of work and sometimes
after just 30 minutes.  Sometimes the input freezes and after a couple
seconds the screen goes black and it goes to the login screen as if it just
rebooted. Sometimes it just stays frozen. Sometimes (rarely)it just goes
directly to the login screen without freezing.

It seems to do it when I am using the mouse, but I have found it gone to
the login screen when I have left it unattended for a while.

This has been going on for a few weeks now and I have not found any
solutions from online searches.

I honestly don't know if it is an input driver crash, a KDE crash, or
something else.  The last couple times it happened, the freeze happened in
short stages. first clicking became unresponsive, then the cursor froze,
then after a few tries where it worked, the Num Lock stopped responding.

If there is anyone out there that can point me in the right direction or
help me troubleshoot, I would be grateful.

Thanks,

Jason Earrame
