Spontaneous numlock
#31
I'm pretty sure it doesn't, I'll check again in a little while when I switch back. But the Pause and Scroll lock (or print screen) turn the numlock LED on and off. It's like the keycodes are wrong, that's why I was wondering if ansi and iso keyboards use different dtbs. But on a similar note in Manjaro the # key gives me a British Pound symbol so the keyboard type may be wrong. That could affect numlock maybe?

The speaker still doesn't switch in Debian Bullseye. But numlock doesn't work. F12/Pause and F9/Print screen are doing a full numlock, both the LED turns on and characters that get typed change to numbers for the keys with numbers.

Did you select the right keyboard type in Manjaro ARM, when you were asked for it?

I think so, I wasn't planning to keep it.  I'm in Manjaro now.  The speakers do turn off when you plug in headphones.

Numlock doesn't work but F9 and F12 give numlock, same as in Debian.  I haven't found in Manjaro where you switch keyboard settings.  I also installed LXDE but I haven't figured out how to switch yet.

I think in the setup there was only one keyboard question, like country but not number of keys.

Quite frankly, something weird seems to be going on...  Could the keyboard actually be faulty?  Have you, maybe, spilled some liquid into the keyboard?  Does xev print anything when you press the NumLock key?  What happens when you press the NumLock key while you're on the virtual console (Ctrl+Alt+F1)?

Well, at least the built-in speakers now turn off automatically when you plug in the headphones.

Last time I tired to use a virtual console in Manajro the original never came back. It was busy doing some GUI thing that was slow so I switched. When I switched back it stayed black. Like I was lookiing at a framebuffer that needed to repaint.

I don't have xev installed. I don't normally use numlock so I don't know if it works. It came on when I didn't want it.

Posting then switching consoles in case it doesn't come back again.

Let's see if the switching to the virtual console and back will work this time.

It didn't come back and the network's dropping out like Network Manager is running. The GUI didn't come back so I switched back to the virtual terminal and typed pkill x. Then when I did ctl-alt-F1 it gave me a GUI login box and started a new session. So opendm is running or something. I normally boot to a console then type startx. Ican actually run X and Wayland in different consoles but it's crashy that way. X and a console mostly work fine.

Let's see if I can get to the network and get this out. Firefox kept it before even though X wasn't running.

I had to disconnect then reconnect the wifi. A few times. That's bogus. MPV is running at 25% CPU, disapointing. not using the GPU enough.

You should have xev, it comes with X. Unless you're using Wayland (I don't know anything about it).

It reports keycode 77 (keysym0xff7f, Num_Lock) on mine.

Note that Manjaro is known to change your keyboard to the wrong layout by itself! You'll have to check the keyboard settings and make sure they are correct.

It reports 78, Scroll_Lock on mine, but I'm back in Debian. Several of the keys in that area seem to be off by 1. Num_Lock is actually on the Print Screen key. And both Print Screen and Pause will toggle Num_Lock and cause numbers to print instead of letters.

Code:
KeyPress event, serial 48, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001,
    root 0x22b, subw 0x2a00002, time 10173268, (33,37), root:(355,236),
    state 0x0, keycode 78 (keysym 0xff14, Scroll_Lock), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

How do you change it in Manajro? I saw a couple places that I'm using a 105 key generic layout but that's as close as I got. I didn't count them but it's probably more than 101.

Just because xev comes with X it doesn't mean your distribution is going to include it. I use xwd so in Debian I have the x11-apps deb installed. I do some xlib programming sometimes, when covid was just starting to hit the US I wrote a simulator in xlib: https://sourceforge.net/projects/epidemicsim/

This will do a screen dump even over an ssh connection but it requires xwd. And it doesn't do well on frame buffers. I call it rdump.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
datestr=`date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M"`
outname=/tmp/ss_$datestr.xwd
echo "Saved as " $outname
echo "You have 5 seconds"
sleep 5
xwd -display ':0.0' -root -out $outname

I count 78 keys.  Very small number but having to push Fn so much is annoying.
