Description

Created attachment 132224 Messages from /var/log/gdm/:0.log.2 (rotated after systemctl restart gdm.service)

With Linux 4.11.6, X.Org Server 1.19.3, libevdev 1.5.7 and xf86-input-evdev 2.10.5 I have the strange behavior, that turning off the monitor and turning it back on, the keyboard stops working. The mouse still works. Restarting GDM with systemctl restart gdm.service fixes the issue. This happens when in the GDM login screen and when being logged in.

Unfortunately, I do not see anything in the log files. Please find the log attached.
