[SOLVED] lvm2 2.03.28-1

Hi, after updating lvm2 to 2.03.28-1 today, keyboard is not responding after decrypting the master key and laptop is stuck on "A password is required to access the vg volume" screen.
What can I do? how to debug? downgrade lvm? 10x!

Re: [SOLVED] lvm2 2.03.28-1

Is this after or before you enter your password and press enter?

If you go through https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mkinitcpio and your `/etc/mkinitcpio.conf`, do you have all the necessary keyboard configuration?

Is there a /etc/mkinitcpio.conf.pacnew file? That might give you an idea of what changes were needed post-update.

If using the `encrypt` hook try `sd-encrypt` and vice versa. Maybe it's some weird bug for your particular device and the other hook doesn't have it.

Re: [SOLVED] lvm2 2.03.28-1

I found the issue, it was because I edited

/etc/vconsole.conf

to include a custom keymap for the TTY, but I also updated lvm at the same time and my confusion was from there.

KEYMAP=/usr/local/share/kbd/keymaps/custom.map

Maybe I need to add this file to

FILES()

in mkinitcpio.conf to actually work. Will test later.
