Note that Ubuntu backported https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/4083 , so we are lacking a fix for this compared to them. scratch build with 4195 applied: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=130701694 can folks test and see if that resolves the issue? thanks. Discussed during the 2025-03-24 blocker review meeting [1]: * AGREED: 2354592 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is accepted as a conditional violation of "A system installed with a release-blocking desktop must boot to a log in screen where it is possible to log in to a working desktop using a user account created during installation or a 'first boot' utility" in the case that an affected a11y setting is enabled [1] https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/blocker-review_matrix_fedoraproject-org/2025-03-24/f42-blocker-review.2025-03-24-16.02.log.html I can reproduce this by setting org.gnome.desktop.a11y.keyboard.enable to true . in my testing, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/4195 does *not* fix it. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/4083 *does* fix it. New version of 4195 from today *does* fix the bug for me. FEDORA-2025-c6e0804a85 (gdm-48.0-1.fc42, gnome-shell-48.0-1.fc42, and 3 more) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 42. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-c6e0804a85 FEDORA-2025-c6e0804a85 has been pushed to the Fedora 42 testing repository. Soon you'll be able to install the update with the following command: `sudo dnf upgrade --enablerepo=updates-testing --refresh --advisory=FEDORA-2025-c6e0804a85` You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-c6e0804a85 See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates.
