[Solved]issues with kernel

I'm running arch on my dell xps 13 bought in 2016 and ever since i installed the latest kernel my keyboard and mouse aren't usable in the login manager. so I had to downgrade the kernel to get my system to work again. As I would like to update my kernel in the future, any idea what the underlying problem could be?

Re: [Solved]issues with kernel

No, because you have provided no useful information: what login manager? What input drivers? What video card and drivers? Xorg or Wayland? Logs? Journal?

Re: [Solved]issues with kernel

Thanks for the suggestion to look in the kernel log. I found i8042: warning keylock active. and found the fix in this post https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=219625
