I have updated clearlinux from 41760
to 41850
and I have the same issue:
I can't type the password to decrypt the partition.
I'm using kernel-native
. I had no issue on version 41760
I have to plug-in an external keyboard to my laptop, then I can type the password.
Also, if I select kernel 6.9.1
in GRUB, I have no issue typing the password
I have the same problem with org.clearlinux.native.6.9.3-1439 but if you select the previous kernel at boot org.clearlinux.native.6.9.3-1437, everything works.
For the native kernel, I tracked this down to commit

Enable ZSTD module compression
since it is still working with 6.9.3-1438 but fails with 6.9.3-1439 or later, this commit is the only change. For some reason, the early boot phase is unhappy with the compressed modules.
Can this issue be addressed ? Not being able to boot is quite critical

The compression issues of the keyboard driver modules were fixed already some time ago now. Did you try with the latest version? Do you still have issues? Mine are completely resolved since compression is disabled.
I've installed the kernel-lts bundle (version 41640) on Clear Linux version 41780.
Here is my disk layout:
The main problem occurs when I try to boot using the LTS kernel from the boot menu. When it requests a password for the encrypted partition, I cannot type the password because the keyboard is disabled. As a result, I have to reboot the system using the power button. Therefore, I'm unable to boot using this kernel.
