Have you tried ctrl+alt+F1 which brings you to TTY1?
If that works ctrl+alt+F7 takes you backto the GUI

Hi
If you have a PS2 keyboard, try "disable usb keyboard" in bios, if not ignore post

Do you use the keyboard a lot in StepMania?
Clicking one or two keys over and over again
The only thing I can think of besides some lousy programming is that the keyboard buffer gets filled to the limit that it won't empty itself. That happens occasionally

400-600 key-presses per minute
Uh?
How do you do that? That's 10 per second
The keyboard buffer is hardware, it's located in the super I/O chip (I think it may be a part of the southbridge in present day mobos) and not very large. There's also a software buffer for the keyboard, the hardware one is maybe not really considered a buffer.
If you have done this on the same board with some other operating system without failure this means that Mint is not emptying the buffer fast enough.
I tried to figure out how to change this, but sometimes (more often than not these days it seems) I got to many irrelevant results when I searched for it, so....

'll try to look it up myself.
That's the spirit
It's easy to find solutions for Windows for this....
