Follow-up Comment #2, bug #61190 (project grub): I'm also experiencing the same issue, and lowering the GFXMODE resolution only reduced the keyboard input lag for me.
The workaround that really fixed it was setting the terminal output to console only: /etc/default/grub.d$ cat custom.cfg GRUB_TIMEOUT=1 GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=countdown GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT=console (GRUB 2.06) _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61190> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
