The keyboard is not working on my Laptop when the system wakes up from suspend mode or when I close the Lid and then reopen.
I made a little edit on the grub file, where I added this Line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash atkbd.reset"
and again I have the same problem. Does someone know how to fix this ? Thanks.
I have felt your pain before and I'm going to assume you haven't modified your GRUB file yet. There are various options or combinations of options that seem to work, so you may have to experiment. This has been a recurring theme on my Toshiba L850D and here is what solved it for me:
In a terminal open GRUB:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Now find the line that starts with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="
and replace it with
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="atkbd.reset i8042.reset i8042.nomux quiet splash"
Save and exit Ctrl+O and Ctrl+X then update GRUB.
sudo update-grub
Reboot and cross your fingers! You may not need i8042.nomux as that is apparently for very old hardware, but I experienced intermittent results without it.
If that doesn't work you can find other options (like dumbkbd) and more detail in this thread:

Edit: In case you're wondering I meant to add that my experience with the lid versus the power button was the same.
Hope that helps.
In Ubuntu 18.04 Gnome desktop, there’s no option in Settings utility for configuring laptop lid close actions. And Gnome Tweaks only offer a switch to enable/disable ‘Suspend when the laptop lid is closed.
Follow the steps:
sudo gedit /etc/systemd/logind.confIt will be like the below image:
Save and exit the file.
systemctl restart systemd-logind.serviceThat's it, This method will fix your issue.

I've found the solution to this problem, and adding this line
to
/etc/default/grubwill work.As it says in that file, you need to run
sudo update-grubbefore these new settings will take effect.However, the bad thing is that the Caps Lock and NumLock lights on the Keyboard will be either always ON or OFF.
