this seems to be the same issue as bug 1389201, it's even the same kbd in that bug. note while the scancodes match, the keycodes in the error messages from that bug are different because in 2018 the hwdb mapping was changed to set the scancodes from 'zoomin/zoomout' to the simpler 'up/down', and those map to the keycodes you are seeing, i.e.:
$ grep -E 'KEY_(UP|DOWN)' /usr/include/linux/input-event-codes.h #define KEY_UP 103 #define KEY_DOWN 108 the original reporter in that bug indicated it 'fixed itself' though from your report it seems it might not have. can you edit the hwdb file as mentioned in bug 1389201 comment 6 and see if that removes the warning messages? you should also check if the 'zoom in/out' keys work, or if you dont care about those keys, then you can just ignore the error messages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890186 Title: Failed to call EVIOCSKEYCODE with scan code 0xc022d, and key code 103: Invalid argument Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I run an up-to-date Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS "focal" with kernel 5.4.0-42-generic on Dell Latitude E6440.

The report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1597415 describes a similar issue for older kernels; the differences pertain to error message, error code, input..., and, opposed to #19 there, I have no Windows partitions (except /boot/efi vfat) in /etc/fstab; mine is not a dual-boot machine.
