I have added some setkeycodes commands to /etc/conf.d/local.start in order to remap the multimedia keys that are present on my keyboard. I have discovered the following facts: if after rebooting, I immediately work under X environment, everything looks fine. Whenever I switch to a console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and return back to X, the keyboard stops working. This happens regardless of the desktop manager (Gnome, KDE): it happens even in the login screen. Moreover, I don't have to log in the console session to activate the bug: merely switching into it is enough. After having accessed to the machine via SSH and restarted the X server, the problem disappeared, only to return after having rebooted the machine. The funny part is that if I manage to start another X session (after having triggered the bug, but before killing the X server) then the new session is unaffected - in practice I can switch between the sessions using Ctrl+Alt+F1 and F8 as long as I want, and nothing happens. Ater having commented out the setkeycodes statements in /etc/conf.d/local.start everything came back to normality. The bug occurs both on my amd64 desktop and my x86 laptop.

Just bumping... anybody dare to tackle this one? Do you need more info about it?
Yes, we need more information from you. Please attach your xorg.conf file to this bug and post the output of emerge -qpv $(qlist -CIq x11-drivers) xorg-server sys-apps/kbd and post the exact setkeycode command you have written in your local.start file. The "qlist" executeable is from the app-portage/portage-utils package. By the way, this looks like a really tricky bug, so every additional information could be helpful.

Ok, I'm gonna attach Xorg.0.log before and after having triggered the bug

Assigning to x11 folks to see if they have any better idea what needs done with this. Its been sitting with wranglers inactive for a week.
Really, I have no idea why that would screw up X. I've been setting up keycodes in local.start for years without any trouble. Maybe there's a specific setkeycode call that breaks the whole thing? Could you try figuring out which one(s) break it? Thanks
Hey I'm having exact the same Problem. Some interesting bits may be: I use "x86" so it's not a x86-64 specific problem. also my local.start file is empty, something else causes this. Maybe there are other config files witch I have edited and cause me this Problem too. here my emerge --info, if needed I will provide more details. # emerge --info Portage 2.1.6.13

Ok I searched for the command. I had it in /etc/X11/gdm/PostLogin. I deleted the entry's now an the Bug is gone.
Can you reproduce the bug with older kernels, say, 2.6.29 ? Thanks

Reopening
@kernel team, there seems to be a regression for some users who use "setkeycodes" with 2.6.30. If I understand the bug correctly, doing a VT switch after X has started breaks all keyboard input. It looks like 2.6.29 is unaffected. Do you guys know anything about it? Should this be reported to some upstream somewhere? (it kinda falls outside the scope of X, so my knowledge is somewhat limited) Thanks :)
try with the latest kernel version gentoo-source-2.30-r4, and see if the bug still happen

Sorry somehow I'm right now unable to reproduce this bug anymore. Maybe some update fixed it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
