Description of problem: After bringing my Thinkpad T14s Gen1. back from standby (Opening the lid) the BackSpace Key and Enter-Key do not work. To be able to login I have to activate the on-screen keyboard. I seem to be able to recover by activating / deactivating the full hardware keyboard function after activating / deactivating the on-screen keyboards once I'm logged in. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): In perallel to the described behaviour on two occassions I received a Crash-report from: gnome-shell 40.4-1.fc34.x86_64 xdg-desktop-portal-gtk 1.8.0-2.fc34.x86_64 How reproducible: it is not 100% reproducible on my system, might be linked to Thinkpad T14s Gen1. Come back from standby, try to login and use backspace or Enter Steps to Reproduce: 1. Come back from standby by opening the lid 2. Enter password and try to press Enter to confirm 3. Use on-screen keyboard to resolve not functioning keys Actual results: Expected results: Additional info: Please tell me which logs I should collecte from which components if problem returns.
I would like to provide additional insight based on how far I can recall this happening in the past. I beleive this problem started to happen with a kernel update a couples of weeks ago. At the beginning I discarded it as a bug of the gnome shell but I believe it is burried deeper. I rolled back on the firmware releases of my ThinkPad because this was also something that changed in the last couple of weeks. So far no effect. Since this happens after sleep / hibernate I know believe this could have something to do with powersaving. My Thinkpad T14s is now Firmware 1.34 and Power Saving hs always been set to "Linux" in Bios Config. Once the problem appears, it will persist through reboots. Enter and Backspace will not even work in Bios or in Grub. A full power-down is necessary to recover function of the internal keyboard. I now set Power Saving to Windows and will also test if my Windows on a second partition will also produce these problems. Can I provide further logs?
The exact thing happened to me as well. Same laptop, same Fedora 34 and xdg-desktop-portal-gtk version. I've update a couple of times, but nothing. Those keys some time works, some the y don't. It's very frustrating. I tried to check some logs, but nothing stood out. Any ideas on how to debug this?
Does the same thing happen if you, e.g. in a terminal, run sudo libinput debug-events sudo evemu-record sudo hid-recorder For the second two, you need to select the right device. Once running, these will log all input events to stdout. The first one will log the events GNOME Shell is supposed to receive. The second one will log the events libinput is supposed to see. The third one is supposed to log the events evdev is supposed to see. Once resuming and logging in (with the touchscreen), see how they behave in response to pressing the keyboard, and we might be able to pinpoint where to look further.
Thanks! I'll try the next time it happens. It happens from time to time, not all the time.
