Fwd: ASUS TUF FA617 [laptop] PS/2 keyboard woes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello.  Myself and others are experiencing issues with recent hardware
from ASUS; keyboards in laptops such as model FA617XT, FA617NS, etc.
seem to not work with Linux.  The keyboards appear to work fine enough
with the BIOS and GRUB, but choke under Linux of various recent
versions (5.19, 6.1, 6.3).

An existing Kernel.org Bugzilla bug exists
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217336) though it's noted
likely the INPUT subsystem does not use this tracker.  Various logs
with i8042 debug are available there, as is some testing notes from
various patches about the interrupt configuration, though it seems
without success.

I'd like to diagnose the issue with the FA617XT if possible;
assistance with things to trial would be appreciated.

Paul Menzel suggests to not support ASUS by returning the device, and
I'm inclined to agree, however it seems ASUS is the only vendor
currently offering the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 chips in conjunction with
AMD Radeon discrete graphics, which I _would_ like to support.  I am
honestly surprised there's any issue at all, given this model is the
"AMD Advantage Edition" and ought to have been thoroughly tested and
vetted in partnership with AMD.  None-the-less, ASUS claims to "not
support the Linux operating system."

Thank you for your time and any assistance with this issue.
