Re: Upgraded to 7.6 - laptop keyboard no longer works

Hi TrevorH and everyone else.

I resorted to rebuilding my system. Everything is working fine now (of course). I wish I could know WTF I did to my system to wreck it like that. At least I know the hardware (and 7.6) is fine :)

Cheers,
MD

Re: Upgraded to 7.6 - laptop keyboard no longer works

Try the downgrade again but this time use --enablerepo=C7.5.1804-{base,updates} and see if that makes any difference. You may also need --noplugins if you have set priority= in some of your repos. Hi again TrevorH. That resulted in a large number of unmatched packages as well as failed dependencies...

Re: Upgraded to 7.6 - laptop keyboard no longer works

Can you post your /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if there is anything there that might show the problem. Here we go. Hoping this isn't too obnoxiously long for forum consumption. Happy to post followups to Pastebin or as files to a web server I manage. I noticed an event of interest at timestamp 25.791...

Re: Upgraded to 7.6 - laptop keyboard no longer works

If you updated from 7.5 then you should still have the old 7.5 kernel installed and selectable from the grub menu at boot time. Check if using that fixes it. I felt like I'd tried that before I opened this thread, so I just tried it again this morning and confirmed it does not resolve the issue. Li...

Re: Upgraded to 7.6 - laptop keyboard no longer works

Is xorg-x11-drv-evdev installed? If not, does it work if you install it? Hi TrevorH. Yes, it's installed. [root@decheser ~]# rpm -q xorg-x11-drv-evdev xorg-x11-drv-evdev-2.10.6-1.el7.x86_64 It looks like it was updated along with the rest of the 7.6 update. The downgrade operation fails because the...

Upgraded to 7.6 - laptop keyboard no longer works

Hello community, this is my first post to the forums. I've been finding solutions here for many years, and am surprised that I seem to be the first person to experience this issue. My apologies in advance if this has been asked and answered elsewhere. I recently upgrade to CentOS 7.6 from 7.5 and am...
