Hello.
I need help to disable my Laptop Inbuilt keyboard permanently as there is a stuck key and I don't use that keyboard anymore. I use a usb keyboard so I wanted to disable the Inbuilt keyboard
What I tried -
xinput list
xinput float
which temporarily disables the keyboard but after reboot it is enabled back. So I searched online for a solution and found that in Ubuntu editing the grub file like below does the work I've tried that myself on Zorin before but I'm new to Garuda arch based linux so need help doing the same. Your help is appreciated.
Open /etc/default/grub
as root and change the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
variable to include i8042.nokbd
. It will look somewhat like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet i8042.nokbd"
. Save the file and then run (as root) in the terminal: update-grub
. Restart your laptop
