Re: [xmonad] USB Keyboard Stopped Working

This ended up being a problem with the latest version of udev. Not sure if it was manifesting this way. On Thu, Jun 11, 2015 at 2:58 PM, Brandon Allbery wrote:

I don't think that this is necessarily an xmonad issue since it happens in the login screen as well (I use Slim). However, when I log in with xfce, it does not happen for some reason.

I would guess that xfce is running some initialization specific to your keyboard somewhere. (Not at all uncommon for desktop environments to run a bunch of extra stuff you don't even know about.)

By any chance does http://superuser.com/questions/691990/different-keycodes-for-f3-and-f4-on-ex... (switching from windows multimedia to generic PC mode) help?
