I seem to have been missing a few updates since beta. After installing the latest updates as of today, I still experience the same problem as before. However, the slight difference is that I could now ctrl-alt-f* to another terminal and then return to vt7, at which point the keyboard would start working again. I think I saw some xorg updates recently, so maybe this bug should be retargeted from linux to xorg.
By the way, I have heard of other people around the neighbourhood who experienced the same problem. One of these people actually has a System76 laptop, but I don't know of any bugs reported against this problem.
