Notebook keyboard is not working in X11 with current kernel

Ask Ubuntu Asked by itcs on February 14, 2021

It started during the last days of lubuntu 20.04 and is still present with 20.10

The last kernel I have (know) which is still working in X11 with the keyboard is 5.3.0-55-generic
Current not working kernel is 5.4.0-54-generic

The mouse (touchpad) is working with all kernel versions.
The internal keyboard is working on grub-menu and
when connecting a external usb-keyboard to switching to tty (ctrl+alt+f2) it is also working there … but not when returning in the X-environment.

with 5.4.0-54 (not working) – I have this additional part in the xorg.0.log

The rest looks like just renumbering the "event"s.
