Certain keys on keyboard have stoped working.
My internal keyboard stopped working after the laptop slept.
I have a lenovo yoga 6.
I have tried removing the battery, adding dumbkb and nomux to my kernal perms and regenerating my mkinitcpio.
What logs do i need to post?

Re: Certain keys on keyboard have stoped working.
My internal keyboard stopped working after the laptop slept.
But the subject says
Certain keys on keyboard have stoped working.
Which is it?
Also
tried removing the battery
So this is permanent? The keys don't work after a reboot?
Do they work in a different context (UEFI, Grub, life distro like grml or knoppix)?
Which keys exactly?

Re: Certain keys on keyboard have stoped working.
My bad about the subject, only certain keys stopped working.
They don't work in luks password prompt either.
Reboot does not fix.
Seems to be permanent, haven't tried distro hopping or going on windows.
The keys that are not working are Y, T, backspace, [, ], capslock, tab, f1, f3 and delete.

Re: Certain keys on keyboard have stoped working.
You don't need to hop distros, grml and knoppix (among others) are life distros, you run them from a usb key.
However, w/ the luks situation and
the affected keys having more geographical than functional patterns, I'm afraid this is probably the hardware.

Re: Certain keys on keyboard have stoped working.
Will try booting into windows first before buying a replacement.
Thanks for the help
