Hi all,
I just installed Silverblue. I didnt have wifi so i updated os to the latest one. But now I dont have working keyboard.
It is a known issue with latest kernel.
my laptop ishttps://psref.lenovo.com/Detail/IdeaPad_5_Pro_16ARH7?M=82SN0066SC
keyboard is broken ( doesnt work at all). On previous build 6.4.6 or less working perfect.
I found on Arch forum that others have the same issue : 217718 – IRQ override revert breaks keyboard on Lenovo Yoga 7 14ARB7
What can I do ?
Thanks
Are you able to enter a tty?
Ctrl+Alt+<Num>
Try tty 3.
I’m unsure of the scope of this issue currently, but if you cannot switch to a tty then you may need to recover from live media.
I am in Gnome atm. Everything working except keyboard. I am using keyboard from accessibility to type
I think I need newest kernel as possible or older than this one… but dont know how
Would I be correct to assume you can use your mouse to copy and paste?
Yes, mouse working fine…even touchpad
Could you please provide the output of
uname -r
6.4.7-200.fc38.x86_64
Ahh hold on a sec. You’re on Silverblue. That should make this easy.
Did you just install it or did a recent update cause this break?
I did install , that is fine, but than I updated to latest update, and kernel upgraded with broken keyboard
Running this should fix your issue:
rpm-ostree rollback
See Updates, Upgrades & Rollbacks :: Fedora Docs for details
Yeah, but with next update kernel will be upgraded.
Is it possible to install another kernel (lts) and than in grub choose them ?
Or I saw that 6.4.9 is launched , maybe I can try that ?
Its not a good idea to use a kernel before Fedora officially release it. It is possible however but puts your system stability at risk.
The safest thing I can recommend is rolling back and waiting a day or so. If you give me a few mins I can check with the Silverblue team to see if they have a suggestion.
Sure, I have a time. Thanks anyway 
The hacky workaround would probably be downloading the desired kernel version from here: kernel | Package Info | koji
And then installing it with sudo rpm-ostree override replace ./kernel*.rpm
I’m not sure how supported doing this is however, so proceed with caution.
And please note I am not a Silverblue user, so I am unable to test these commands properly.
ok, thanks I will try

This topic may address the issue: Downgrading kernel on Silverblue - #3 by jlh
You may simply be able to install additional overrides to resolve the issue.
I’m seeing the actual issue as
Problem: package kernel-6.4.9-200.fc38.x86_64 from @commandline requires kernel-core-uname-r = 6.4.9-200.fc38.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed
Ok,I got it. I installed latest 6.4.10 and keyboard is back.
But, I think that my Silverblue is not immutable anymore ? Because I layered the package (kernel)
