Hi, I tried the described scenario a few times from both Eoan and Focal hosts and always ended up with a working keyboard. FWIW, while doing ISO testing I often ran installations of Ubuntu *server* on Eoan and now I do on Focal, and never experienced the issue. I do not doubt the report is valid, but it's one of those cases where without a reproducer it is very difficult to take action.

[Bug 1863950] Re: Failure installing ubuntu 20.04 in virtual machine at 19.10
Trying again gives the keyboard not working. The difference between 'working' and 'not working' seems to be that it works when I have the virtual disk on an SSD, and doesn't work when I have the virtual disk on a real disk (on a USB3 bus). I have a problem believing this, though, because the failing install doesn't get as far as trying to access the disk. Maybe there is some unreliability in setting up the keyboard access. In the failing case, I can get qemu to send Ctrl-Alt-F2 to the virtual machine to get a text console. When I do this, I get a login prompt; the keyboard is working so I can attempt to log in, but I don't know what user and password to use so I can't succeed in logging in and I can't issue the commands to collect the data you are asking for. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863950 Title: Failure installing ubuntu 20.04 in virtual machine at 19.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1863950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried it again (with a view to going to the console), but this time the keyboard worked normally. So the problem isn't 100% reproducible.

[Bug 1863950] Re: Failure installing ubuntu 20.04 in virtual machine at 19.10
Christian, when you tested did you boot the live environment and then run the installer, or just go directly into install? Chris, collecting the files I mentioned previously in the working environment would let you compare them with the broken environment. You could also try going to the console (F2 I think?) and see if the keyboard works there. Good that you tested going through the live environment, I forgot to suggest trying that. That narrows down where the fault might lay (i.e. probably higher up than the kernel, and probably rules out qemu and X), as well as giving a way to workaround. ** Changed in: qemu (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863950 Title: Failure installing ubuntu 20.04 in virtual machine at 19.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1863950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1863950] Re: Failure installing ubuntu 20.04 in virtual machine at 19.10
Hi Chris and Chris, There could be a number of different causes for why the keyboard may not work. You'll need to do a bit more sleuthing to isolate where it's getting hung up. Given Christian is not reproducing it, it's unlikely to be a regression in the qemu software itself, but perhaps more likely a conflict for your particular combination of hardware and environment. Generally for X input devices, the first thing I'd check is if the device is being recognized by the system. Two commands for this are: $ xinput $ sudo lsinput The first command shows what X sees. You should see 'Virtual core keyboard' and some sub-devices off of it. I've seen situations where, for instance, a power button or webcam or other function key gets detected as "the keyboard", so keystrokes don't do anything; I'm doubtful this would happen under qemu but look for anything irregular. If the problem can be isolated to X devices, there are further troubleshooting steps that can be taken. The second command shows the kernel layer. There should be at least one /dev/input/event* entry for a keyboard. I'm not versed in how this looks under qemu vs. ordinary desktops but again look for anything irregular. If the problem can be isolated to the kernel layer, then kernel troubleshooting steps should be followed. Another thing I would check is if you can access the console and log in that way. This would isolate the problem to X as opposed to something lower in the stack. Also note that sometimes if you can move the mouse cursor, but nothing else works (not just typing, but neither button clicks nor clock updates on the screen), then the problem might be a system lockup or crash, in which case the issue would probably be with the application layer. Checking dmesg or the journal for error messages would be the next step there. Other random things to try would be to see if you can reliably reproduce the same issue or not on different hardware, or different ubuntu releases, or other variances. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863950 Title: Failure installing ubuntu 20.04 in virtual machine at 19.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu/+bug/1863950/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Chris, I tried installing the focal desktop image s(is that waht you used?) [1] in Eoan and in Focal under virt-manager. I also tried it on early boot when the disk image initializes (the white/orange dots) there F2 got me to the boot console and I saw services coming up. I switched back to the graphical UI and after loading for a while I got to the usual installer input boxes - I was able to type into those just as usual. Is that issue reproducible for you, if so which guest image/iso exactly are you using? P.S. the guest was rather slow, that was the only thing I realized being different than usual - after a while I realized I was running emulation instead of KVM. Fixing that still showed the same results (working keyboard).
