Hey folks,
I was just down in Mexico and while I was there my computer went haywire. I had no keyboard control. Something locked up so I was forced to hard restart it, when it got to the login screen I couldn't enter my password and it was continuously logging in as guest. At one point 20 guest login attempts were listed. When it logged into guest my drives would come up and say that it couldn't mount, and if I tried to use a browser it would type adsf continuously or hkjl. I was using a VPN, I got off the network and had to use an onscreen keyboard to login after letting it sit for a while, and I did a timeshift to before I left. It seemed to clear it up at first, but it continued to be intermittent down there.
I haven't used it much since I got back. I am on it now, and it seems ok, but I had a couple auto types into the password prompt before I typed my password. I haven't restarted it just because it is working fine atm, and I wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts. I had to restart the network manager in the terminal because I had no internet although it was connected to my router. It was a beach front property in Mexico in case it could be environmental.
Any thoughts?
I am running mint on a Dell laptop.
