Thanks for the email.  Let's see if we can try to get this resolved for
you.

I think it first would be best if you can test the most recent daily
live Intrepid image - http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
It should contain the most recent 2.6.27-7.12 kernel.  You should be
able to test using a LiveCD.  Assuming your keyboard issue still exists
after testing a suspend/resume cycle, lets go ahead and have you open a
bug in Launchpad.  I myself an not certain of the appropriate package to
assign it against just yet, but for now let's just have you assign it to
the linux kernel package:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug

We can always update the bug to be against a different package later if
necessary.  The following wiki helps describe the typical kernel
debugging information your bug report should contain:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies

It would also be best if you could wait to capture your dmesg output
(described in the above wiki) until after you've done a suspend/resume
cycle.  There are also a few other things I'd be interested in having
you try, but first lets confirm it's still an issue.  We can then follow
up more via your bug report.

Thanks,
Leann
