Hi - if you go to a virtual terminal and run showkey -a , then try to press
Fn+S, what shows up there?
I'm asking as Fn modifies what key is sent to the operating system, if there is
an assigned Fn function for it on your keyboard. On at least my laptop, S
doesn't have such a function, so Fn+S just types an S.
Your keyboard appears to be sending something to the device when Fn+S is
pressed - possibly getting stuck as well - but what is getting sent by the
keyboard would be helpful to understand if there is possibly a KDE bug here.
For what it's worth, "DDoS" refers to a distributed denial of service attack -
many different computers sending packets to overwhelm one system - a different
thing from a freeze or crash :-)
