Public bug reported: Keyboard on an LG LW25 laptop is not functional anymore on Ubuntu 13.10.
Any 3.8.x Ubuntu kernel works fine. Starting with 3.9.0, the keyboard breaks. External keyboards are still fine. Using i8042.dumbkbd=1 as a kernel boot parameter seems to be a usable workaround. A kernel bisect suggests that the first bad commit is: be2d7e4233a4fe439125b825470020cef83407d5 Input: atkbd - fix multi-byte scancode handling on reconnect ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: linux-image-3.11.0-13-generic 3.11.0-13.20 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-13.20-generic 3.11.6 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-13-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: i386 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: joonas 1557 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDmesg: [ 36.874560] init: cups-browsed main process ended, respawning Date: Mon Dec 2 06:53:57 2013 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=07de3f8c-11e5-4fa3-a097-47cee4c8a90f InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-11-25 (6 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release i386 (20131016) MachineType: LG Electronics LW25-B7HV MarkForUpload: True PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-13-generic root=UUID=db674b31-c58d-4cc7-b622-9e3a17baf01c ro quiet splash i8042.dumbkbd=1 vt.handoff=7 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.11.0-13-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.11.0-13-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.116 SourcePackage: linux StagingDrivers: et131x UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 03/25/2006 dmi.bios.vendor: Phoenix Technologies LTD dmi.bios.version: WRRESF03 dmi.board.name: WindRiver NAPA dmi.board.vendor: LG Electronics dmi.board.version: Not Applicable dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LG Electronics dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnPhoenixTechnologiesLTD:bvrWRRESF03:bd03/25/2006:svnLGElectronics:pnLW25-B7HV:pvrNotApplicable:rvnLGElectronics:rnWindRiverNAPA:rvrNotApplicable:cvnLGElectronics:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: LW25-B7HV dmi.product.version: Not Applicable dmi.sys.vendor: LG Electronics ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 saucy staging -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1256776 Title: LG LW25: Keyboard not working Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Keyboard on an LG LW25 laptop is not functional anymore on Ubuntu 13.10.
