Input freeze during gaming, hard reset (rtw88_8822bu problem?!?)

Hi all,

as per title I experience a total input freeze, I’m not a terminal expert but I’ll post some terminal findings.

PROBLEM:
Suddenly Keyboard and Mouse stop working, happens mainly in games (both on Geforce NOW and Steam) and one time during application use (jack - Guitarix - Firefox).
During the input freeze everything still correctly works on screen.
In games, for example, the character is following the last input pressed just before the freeze, so for example, it walks forward and shoots forever (multiplayer works, I see other ppl moving around correctly)

On applications (like playing guitar tru an audio device) I still can perfectly hear the sound processed by Guitarix also during the total input freeze.

  • No amount of waiting fix the problem
  • No key magic combination works
  • Pressing Bloc Maiusc on keyboard doesn’t switch on the relative light like usually does (I do have power and some other lights on thou)

WHAT I TRIED

  • After continue freezing in game few days ago I start using a previous kernel (7.2.4-200.fc44.x86_64) and It apparently worked since yesterday, when the freezes started again, not only in games but in normal PC usage.
  • Just now (at the time of writing) I had a freeze, I tried to swap mouse and keyboard usb ports with no success.
    Then I tried to swap my realtek adapter (rtw88_8822bu) from a usb 3.0 to a normal one…and it actually fix the issue without hard reset.
    (Had some problems loading rtw88_8822bu at machine startup, I had to modprobe it at every boot and then, with the help of AI, I made it stick at every boot).

Anyway here some infos if someone wants to look into it.
Thank you and sorry if it might be a chaotic post, since this is my first time posting copious terminal lines.

Great first post.

How long has this been occuring?

Have you tried upgrading your kernel, or using an older kernel via the Grub menu at startup?

Hi,
thank you.
I think this is going on since couple of weeks.
Now I updated all the system but Initially I used cmd to permanently use the older kernel.
I used Grub before the update to try different kernel versions (because I was thinking about a conflict between Gpu drivers (my pascal gpu is no longer supported) and kernel.
And I admit it was a totally blind thing I tried.

Since moving the rtw88_8822bu adapter off the USB 3.0 port brought the keyboard and mouse back without a reset, it’s likely that the adapter or its driver is stalling the USB controller. Right after the next freeze, run journalctl -k --since "15 min ago" | grep -iE "rtw|xhci|usb" and look for rtw88 errors or “xHCI host controller not responding, assume dead” at the time of the freeze. If the adapter has to stay on a USB 3.0 port, check that modinfo rtw88_usb | grep switch_usb_mode lists that option, then add the line options rtw88_usb switch_usb_mode=N to a new file such as /etc/modprobe.d/rtw88.conf and reboot so the adapter runs in USB 2 mode. Otherwise keep it on the USB 2.0 port.

Drafted with AI, reviewed by me.

Thanks for your answer, I probably keep it in the 2.0 USB tasting the freedom from CLI Troubleshooting for a while… hopefully.
For context, the Tplink AC1300 usb wifi adapter that I have was suspending it’s usb port causing connection problems an year ago in Fedora 42, and I had to manually install the drivers. Since Fedora 44 I never had connection/usb problems till now. Weird…
Thanks all again for the support.

That GPU should be supported by the 580xx driver. This link applies with changes that were done when f44 was released.
