The first letter in the alphabet a is not working on my keyboard. I'm also noticing that the num lock light flashes with every keystroke of any letter as I type. I re-installed an older version of Ubuntu and it works again so it is the 11.10 release of Ubuntu.

How can I fix this?

model is toshiba satellite l655d-s5076rd

  • That's all? Can you try again with xev > xev.log, then press a, then close the little window, open xev.log, copy its content to paste.ubuntu.com and add the link here?
