Every once in a while the keyboard freezes for a bit, but the mouse still works fine.



The keyboard and mouse are connected to the computer via a single wireless dongle.



The problem is fixed by a reboot.



I confirmed that the CPU and RAM were not being fully utilized.



What else might be causing it?



UPDATE:
It seems like it might have something to do with my GPU.
I found this in /var/syslog right after an incident:



Dec 25 00:28:33 debian kernel: [ 920.350428] NVRM: GPU at PCI:0000:01:00: GPU-60df4653-7e30-ba1b-17c9-f7a69fcdb14a

  • Start with dmesg output and /var/log/syslog, maybe /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and try to capture them around the time of the incident. You could open a couple terminals and follow them with tail -f (and dmesg -w). Also keep in mind that issues like this may be more likely since you are on a testing release of Debian.

  • It's unlikely (but not impossible) that the delay is caused by the GPU in some way. Assuming it's an USB dongle, the event path is: USB -> dongle driver -> kernel input layer -> X/Wayland input layer. Test systematically where the problem is: First check the kernel input layer (evtest, see if you get events even if you don't get keypresses). After that usbmon, or xev (or whatever Wayland can use).

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
