[arch-general] Key not working
Hi, I've just done a new arch install on my Dell laptop and have noticed that the right arrow isn't working. And showkeys doesn't respond to the key being pressed. Is there anything else I can try before assuming it's a hardware problem? Many thanks, Peter

I would rule out hardware before digging too deep. Do the other arrows work? Do you have a keyboard you can plug in?
Try booting a live CD/USB and test it.
Other than that, it's a faulty key.
