[Bug 886149] Re: Usb keyboard does not work to enter password for encrypted disk

[Benjamin Drung]

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

I checked Ubuntu 23.10 and hid and usbhid are included in the initramfs:

$ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-6.5.0-10-generic | grep -E "/(usb)?hid\.ko"
usr/lib/modules/6.5.0-10-generic/kernel/drivers/hid/hid.ko.zst
usr/lib/modules/6.5.0-10-generic/kernel/drivers/hid/usbhid/usbhid.ko.zst

So I assume this issue fixed. Please report back if that is not the
case.

** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Released

Title:
  Usb keyboard does not work to enter password for encrypted disk

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Repeatable always: Usb keyboard does not work when cryptsetup asks
  password to open encrypted disk in early phase of boot.

  Expected: It should be possible to enter pass phrase to unlock
  encrypted disk

  Ubuntu 11.10, initramfs-tools 0.99ubuntu7.

  As a solution I added lines
  hid
  usbhid

  to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and executed
  update-initramfs -u
