Hi All,

Patient

Lenovo ideapad pro 5 14ahp9

I’ve been using cachyos for a while now and I’m happy with it, but for last couple of weeks i have issue during login.

Number keys on laptop keyboard are not working expect 5 and 6, I have to click virtual keyboard two times to get rest of the keys working. External keyboard works properly

I’ve tried to fix it with turning on numlock on startup, but this only works for reboots not when laptop is waking up. Restarts before were also solving issue. I also noticed that sometimes this issues shows up when I try to provide passwords in the konsole

what kernel are you using? Did you update to kernel 7, it seems there are some problems with it.

Run in console: uname -a

to see the kernel version

The closest model with a similar issue I could find is 14ACN6. See if any of these help:

There is also this article on GitHub. Assuming you are running the same driver (check with cat /proc/bus/input/devices | less -p "keyboard"), you could write your own systemd service to reattach your keyboard after sleep.

What on that page is related?

“Advanced Sleep” requires the hidden/advanced BIOS menus.
Which itself requires tapping many keys in succession including the number row.
The outcome being that you have extra BIOS options and/or as pertains to that sleep you could then set S3.
But I still that would not seem to be related to the OP issue of

I also happen to have one of those devices and no such issue of non-working numbers is present.

Ah. In the case its only related to after-suspend.
I guess its possible.

Thank you kind Sir,

This github.com/kartiklolla/keyboard-issue-fix-for-Lenovo-Ideapad-pcs-on-Arch seems to work,

Loosk like my google fu failed me and I was looking for generci issue not for hardware specific issue since this issues started showing up recently after months of use.

@stefa01 yes I have upgraded to kernel 7 but this issue showed before that .

Regarding hidden menu and turning off 14ahp9 doesnt have hidden menu and newer cpus dont support s3 sleep unfortunetly only new power draining sleep
