I've just updated an Asus Laptop with Intel graphics to 24.04-3 which all went smoothly until providing the password to the LUKS volume during startup. The LUKS password dialog displayed as expected then after a second or so there's a flash of the screen and it's like there's an overlay and no password characters seemed to register.
Adding i915 to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and running "update- initramfs -u" cured this problem for me too. BRIGHTNESS Control: adding this module also fixed the brightness controls Fn+F5 / Fn+F6 which after the update were fixed on full brightness. As anyone encountering the above problems may also be stuck with the Touchpad permanently on, removing the synaptics module: sudo apt remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Now Fn+F9 toggles the Elantech touchpad on/off again - as it should! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2091864 Title: Cannot enter luks password at boot after kernel 6.8.0-50 upgrade Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Upgraded Ubuntu 24.04 software, including kernel 6.8.0-50, after which upon booting the luks password couldn't be entered (dialog unresponsive).
