Hi Everyone.
Yesterday, while using my FrameWork (an AMD 13”, but I’m sure it’s irrelevant
), suddenly, the Keyboard, Power button and Trackpad stopped working altogether
even pushing the power button for 20 seconds didn’t shutdown the computer ![]()
A few minutes later I came back to the laptop and it was working again, as if nothing happened. The kernel log of my Linux didn’t show me anything special …
Then I understood what happened : I put my FrameWork on top of my old Asus Zenbook … and it seems that this other laptop have quite powerful magnets to keep some stuff shut or to detect the closing of the lid … and the FrameWork “thought“ it was closed, therefore disabling the keyboard & trackpad …
I tested this situation then, and it worked each time as planned : a few seconds after I put my FrameWork on my old Asus Zenbook, it shut down the keyboard the trackpad & the power button
I hope this may help people having the same issue : be aware of powerful magnets too close from your laptop ![]()
