k, here's a program. If the bug is what I think it is then this should print K_OFF when everything is good and K_UNICODE when it's bad. You can also run it with BREAK or FIX to break/fix your system too.
Perhaps if you suffer from this bug you could run this very frequently so you catch as soon as it changes, and then try to work out what you were doing to make it flip over. ** Attachment added: "kbd.c" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1710637/+attachment/4952124/+files/kbd.c -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1710637 Title: Input falls through to gdm3 and terminates the session on Ctrl+C Status in console-setup package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Multiple times a day I find myself without a session after hitting Ctrl+C in a terminal, it seems the input falls through the Ubuntu/GNOME session and to gdm, which itself decides to terminate. Even worse, when this happens, you can briefly see your login password in plaintext in the virtual terminal. You can see the password however long you want if you stop the gdm service when this happens. I don't have a good way to reproduce, but it seems locking the session with a keyboard shortcut, subsequently unlocking it, maybe suspending, at some point brings this behaviour into the picture, until the session dies with a Ctrl+C.
