=========

I'll add just a bit to these other good suggestions, to say if you are 
sure you are not getting any input from the keyboard, then quite likely 
it's an X config problem.  If there is not input, then ctrl-alt-f1 to 
the terminal, log in as root, type init 3 (if the keyboard is working), 
enter, then run sax2 making sure your mouse and keyboard are correctly 
configured, back to the prompt and type init 5, enter, to get back to 
the login screen.
