[opensuse-factory] Kernel 4.17.x problem
Hello, ever since kernel 4.17.1 showed up in a TW snapshot around two or three weeks ago, I am completely missing keyboard input already early in the boot phase. I.e. when the Plymouth screen shows I cannot hit a key to return to the text message screen, and after Plasma has booted up, I cannot type anything anywhere. The mouse works perfectly. this is a cheaper ASUS laptop, Intel Core i5. Besides booting the earlier kernel I have no idea how to approach the problem or even which logs to look at for a previous boot. I'd be very grateful for tips on how to obtain logs or debug this, or a link to a bug ticket if it is a known issue, I was not able to find one but my time is pretty limited and I need this machine for everyday work at the moment.

This is the kind of email where you would have been much better creating a bug report against the kernel, the kernel team will be able to help you with this issue, you don't need to involve everyone on this list. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B

It's likely a problem that has been already fixed. Try the kernel in OBS Kernel:stable repo. Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Indeed, this one works. So chances are this fix will soon be in TW? And would you mind to give any pointers to what the actual bug was? Thanks a lot Takashi, greetings, Edgar -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Yes.

It's bug 1098074, a regression in ACPICA AML parser. Takashi -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
