Hi,

The first concern is not that annoying and about a wireless mouse that
has systematically two different behaviours:
1. one if the receiver is already plugged at boot,
2. one if it is plugged while linux has boot.
For 1. the mouse is like going quickly into sleep mode each time I do
not move it and then take a few instants to wake up,
For 2. the mouse is okl.

Could this be related to any power profiles or power management tool?

It may be.  I know this question involves Ubuntu, but it might be relevant.

In XFCE there's a "mouse and touchpad" settings panel, so there might be
something useful there.

The second is quite recent (1/2 months ago?) related to the internal keyboard.
Either everything is fine with the keyboard or either all the keyboard
is not working well.
Every key has a sort of delay and some key events seem to be lost.
And it is the case both using the TTY or the DE (GNOME).

I do not see any messages (dmesg / journalctl) that could help me to track this.
I just suspect some racing init steps during boot but...
Is there any tool to track when this problem occurs?

Finally it seems to me that there is an abundance of input files in /dev/input.

$ sudo ls /dev/input
by-id     event0  event10  event12  event14  event16  event18  event2
  event21    event23  event3  event5  event7  event9  mouse0  mouse2
by-path  event1  event11  event13  event15  event17  event19  event20
event22    event24  event4  event6  event8  mice     mouse1

That's not an obscene amount, here's mine:

eben@cerberus:~$ ls /dev/input
total 0
0 by-id/    0 event10  0 event14  0 event18  0 event3  0 event7  0 mouse0
0 by-path/  0 event11  0 event15  0 event19  0 event4  0 event8
0 event0    0 event12  0 event16  0 event2   0 event5  0 event9
0 event1    0 event13  0 event17  0 event20  0 event6  0 mice

Sorry, I see no red flags relating to your problem. I hope you get it fixed.
