Description Gianluca Merlo 2020-02-08 00:38:12 UTC
Description of problem:

After upgrading systemd to systemd-243.6-1.fc31.x86_64, a keyboard and mouse connected to a USB hub are powered but no longer working in GDM and Gnome. They work if connected directly to USB ports of the system.
If I connect them directly, switch to a VT, and re-connect them to the hub they are correctly working.
udev seems to see them fine when connecting/disconnecting from the hub, libinput and Xorg do not.
Suspecting systemd (systemd-udev, or systemd-logind, though I am very , I downgraded to systemd-243-4.gitef67743.fc31.x86_64, which fixes the issue.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

systemd-243.6-1.fc31.x86_64

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect devices to usb hub
2. Boot the system

Actual results:

At GDM login screen, mouse and keyboard are not working.

Expected results:

Mouse and keyboard should be working.

Additional info:

USB Hub is a rather plain AmazonBasics 10-port USB 2.0 hub
A USB headset device connected to the same hub works fine, issue seems to be with HID only.

Comment 4 Gus Wirth 2020-02-10 05:35:59 UTC
I have the same issue. After upgrading from systemd-243.5-1.fc31.x86_64 to systemd-243.6-1.fc31.x86_64 the mouse stopped working when plugged into a USB2.0 hub. Plugging the mouse into a USB port directly connected to the motherboard worked.

If I switch to a virtual console and use gpm (general purpose mouse), the mouse works fine.

Downgrading the systemd-* packages to the systemd-*243.5-1.fc31.x86_64 versions fixes the problem.
