Laptop Keyboard not working on Machenike L17A Star JJ00GH00ERU

The laptop’s native keyboard doesn’t work. I’m using the default kernel provided by the last installation ISO and grub boot manager. Any help?

This is worth a shot (but may not work and apparently has other issues), add:

 i8042.dumbkbd

to your kernel parameters, rebuild your initramfs and reboot.

Can you please explain in detail what needs to be done?

OK - are you using grub or systemd-boot?

systemd-boot:

sudo nano /etc/kernel/cmdline

## Add  i8042.dumbkbd to the line, save file, then:

sudo reinstall-kernels

## Reboot.

My file:

quiet nvme_load=YES nowatchdog rw root=UUID=f09efc4c-076f-4045-8558-eba26796d1cf resume=UUID=048e428b-52bc-413d-9c2a-5f8d5320d5e4 nvidia-drm.modeset=1

So just add to beginning of line:

 i8042.dumbkbd quiet nvme_load=YES nowatchdog rw root=UUID=f09efc4c-076f-4045-8558-eba26796d1cf resume=UUID=048e428b-52bc-413d-9c2a-5f8d5320d5e4 nvidia-drm.modeset=1

With a space between.

grub:

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Add to line:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='quiet nvme_load=YES loglevel=3 pci=noaer'

Inside the single quotes, then:

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Thanks for the answer, but unfortunately it didn’t work(
