layer_indicator activates a CTRL layer #562

Open agenbite opened 1 year ago

agenbite commented 1 year ago

This is my config:

[ids]

k:0001:0001

[global]

layer_indicator = 1

[main]

# CapsLock behaves as ESC if tapped, and as Meta if held.
capslock = overload(meta, esc)

# Hold space to navigate with hjkl
space = timeout(overload(nav, space), 500, space)

# Tapping both shift keys simultaneously will activate CapsLock
leftshift+rightshift = capslock

[nav]
h = left
k = up
j = down
l = right
a = home
s = pagedown
d = end
q = ins
w = pageup

Now, if I hit CTRL+Print, I get into what seems like an undefined layer where CTRL is always activated. After some testing, I came to the conclusion that this effect is dependent on layer_indicator: if I comment out that line, I don't get it anymore.

I use a Thinkpad X1 Carbon (gen6) with Ubuntu 23.04, kernel 6.2.0-27-generic, and I'm otherwise very thankful and quite happy with keyd. :)

Let's display the debug logs for now Can you find any interesting logs when you perform the same operation after the following?

# systemctl stop keyd
# KEYD_DEBUG=1 keyd

Ok, this is what I get if I press (right) CTRL and PrintScreen at the same time without layer_indicator=1:

DEBUG: src/daemon.c:429: input rightcontrol down
DEBUG: src/keyboard.c:260: Activating layer control
DEBUG: src/vkbd/uinput.c:324: output leftcontrol down
DEBUG: src/daemon.c:429: input sysrq down

DEBUG: src/vkbd/uinput.c:324: output leftcontrol up
DEBUG: src/daemon.c:429: input sysrq up
DEBUG: src/vkbd/uinput.c:324: output sysrq up

And this is what I get if I have layer_indicator=1 in my config:

DEBUG: src/daemon.c:429: input rightcontrol down
DEBUG: src/keyboard.c:260: Activating layer control
DEBUG: src/vkbd/uinput.c:324: output leftcontrol down

This doesn't happen always. It depends on how I press the two keys together, but I haven't been able to find out what's the trigger: I tried pressing CTRL and then PrintScreen, also PrintScreen and then CTRL, and pressing both very fastly. The effect appears sometimes but always only in the later case (both keys pressed at the same time).

I wish I could give more precise info.

How about KEYD_DEBUG=2 keyd? Sorry if it makes no difference.

Here's a series of three CTRL+PrintScreen presses. The first two do not hang up in the CTRL-layer while the third one does:

P.S.: I'm having trouble shutting down the daemon. After one or two shutdowns and restarts, keyd stops finding my laptop's keyboard, forcing me to reboot my computer in order to being able to launch keyd.
