Ok more clues. My keyboard is a Logitech G15 Gaming keyboard. It has lots of
features, which present themselves to Linux as various devices. The regression
somewhere around that.
And it's a userspace regression, the same kernel with Ubuntu 17.04 works fine.
If I connect a very plain USB keyboard that works fine, it's only the
G15 that's giving problems.
So here's xinput from a Ubuntu where it works:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Razer Razer DeathAdder Chroma id=10 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Razer Razer DeathAdder Chroma id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ G15 Gaming Keyboard id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ G15 Gaming Keyboard id=9 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Razer Razer DeathAdder Chroma id=12 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ G15 GamePanel LCD id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Eee PC WMI hotkeys id=14 [slave keyboard (3)]

Title:
[artful] Keyboard Logitech G15 doesn't work after logging in to gnome
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After I type my password in GDM and come to the gnome desktop, no keys are
working. Not even caps lock toggling.
However, I found out that if I toggle "Slow keys" in the accessibility
settings, it starts working again!
To clarify, Slow keys and all other accessibility is disabled from start, but
turning Slow keys on and off again makes my keyboard work.
I seem to have to do this once after every _reboot_.
This is on a system that has upgraded to Artful.
