Attached is the debdiff for the following Merge Request merged upstream: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1070
Please review ** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + + * This change will force update keyboard LED status after calling + EnableDevice, in order to resolve LED status not syncing after switching + VT to a X session. + + * This also fixes the issue with NVIDIA driver and Xorg, that after + resuming from suspend the keyboard LED is always off. + + [ Test Plan ] + + 1. Log on a X session desktop (GNOME Xorg for example) + + 2. Turn on NumLock on the keyboard + + 3. Use Ctrl-Alt-F3 to switch to a text console, then Ctrl-Alt-F2 to + switch back to desktop + + NumLock LED should be on after switching back to the desktop + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + * The changes are to push status to the device when enabling it + regardless of actual keyboard state change, therefore switching between + VTs and adding/removing keyboard/mouse/xinput devices should be affected + by this change. + + [ Original Report ] + Switching virtual terminals [Ctrl-Alt-F1 - F7] to a X session turns off keyboard LEDs. This issue is reproducible on 2:21.1.3-2ubuntu2.1 (on 22.04) To reproduce: 1. Log on a X session desktop (GNOME Xorg for example) 2. Turn on NumLock 3. Use Ctrl-Alt-F3 to switch to a text console, then Ctrl-Alt-F2 to switch back to desktop Expected: NumLock LED should be on Actual: NumLock LED is off, but functions like NumLock is on. If NumLock is pressed the LED turns off as well as the function. If CapsLock is pressed the LED states sync back (LED turns back on). ** Description changed: [ Impact ] - * This change will force update keyboard LED status after calling + * This change will force update keyboard LED status after calling EnableDevice, in order to resolve LED status not syncing after switching VT to a X session. - * This also fixes the issue with NVIDIA driver and Xorg, that after + * This also fixes the issue with NVIDIA driver and Xorg, that after resuming from suspend the keyboard LED is always off.
