hot keys stop wprking

In my case the track pad, right and left mouse keys work, along with the numerical keys for feed override, just the "s" and "p" stopped working. I then try to leave the cursor over the pause button on Axis and just use the left "mouse" button to pause. Not a deal breaker.

Linuxcnc does not react to keyboard inputs when Caps Lock is on.
Linux in general makes a distinction between lower and upper case.

Now that _really_ sounds like caps-lock.

You could test it by deliberately applying caps-lock. I think you wil find the very same behaviour.

yup, it was the caps lock... :whistle:
Thanks all

I second that it was caps lock. A nice simple fix.

Doug and Badger,
Thank you for reporting back.
