Keyboard not working sometime #4

Open BenDevelopment opened 3 years ago

BenDevelopment commented 3 years ago

Sometime, when I boot MacOS, the keyboard is not responding (I cannot enter my session password). I have to reboot my XPS many times to make the keyboard working again. When I reboot, the computer goes to the BIOS with an error message:

Alert

Any idea how to fix this? Are you facing the same problem?

zachs78 commented 3 years ago

Not since I fixed it in my EFI. Have you changed the config.plist in anyway?

BenDevelopment commented 3 years ago

I've changed nothing about keyboard. I'm using the plist from your config.

Try disabling touchscreen, maybe? Not sure. Working very well with my EFI.

BenDevelopment commented 3 years ago

Touchscreen is already disabled in bios. USB keyboard works well for information.

I have exactly the same issue - I can not find a solution either. I will investigate further. But you're not alone. I also encountered an issue when monitor goes dark after inactivity it does not come back to live. The Laptop keeps functioning as per normal, music keeps playing, and keyboard and mouse are definitely responding as well

Also I want to add. I have FHD-Non Touch, 16GB, 2 NVME Sticks, booting into MacOS on Samsung EVO, 10750H. Maybe this has all something to do with the screen being non touch. @zachs78 Are you doing any injections for the touchscreen to work that are non-standard? For the keyboard are you just using the VoodooPS2 kext with no modifications?

Edit: Fixed the screen issue with the following commands inside Terminal sudo pmset lidwake 0 sudo pmset autopoweroff 0 sudo pmset powernap 0 sudo pmset standby 0 sudo pmset proximitywake 0

I've deleted my EFI folder and remade the OpenCore setup (using the one in this repository again), and now, the keyboard problem is gone. I don't know what really was the problem.
