FWIW, I have a similar issue on one of my boxes, v3.5-rc doesn't seem to
register the keyboard as an input device at boot time, using an initrd
with udev (175). The USB devices are detected, I can see usbhid getting
loaded, but the keyboard just doesn't work. And on this box the root
filesystem is luks-encrypted, which makes debugging somewhat difficult
without a keyboard.

The same keyboard works with the same kernel image on another box, so I
have no idea what this is about.
