Hello everybody, thanks for passing by...
It is a week since my GDM started to have a strange behavior. When I'm on the login, keyboard input is not recognized anymore. They simply don't work. Mouse works, and when I click on my user for login, on screen keyboard appears and it is the only way to input my password (quoting someone: Sad!). After login, keyboard works as expected.
I've checked around:
~$ systemctl status gdm.service

But I always had
version==hash_table->version
issue... even before this one . Now I will try to enable debug mode in /etc/gdm/custom.conf (just found it) to test and report a little more on the issue...

Ops! Apparently solved! ALL Universal Access options were turned on in login screen, and one of them was completely blocking my keyboard. This is my work computer, I suspect it was a joke...
Sorry That I bothered you...
EDIT: yes, it was a succeeded joke....
