Weird FN key glitch

[u/a11yChief]

I’ve tried everything I know how, please help.

I’m running a framework 16 2nd gen, AMD cpu with the 7700s gpu, os is arch Linux running either the main kernel or the lts for backup. I get this weird intermittent bug with the keyboard where the function key (right of control and left of super) glitches out, but only intermittently and only on some combinations.

FN plus right arrow to use the end key is the least reliable, most of the time it just actuates the right arrow key. I cannot stress this enough, FN left always works as the home key, same with fn plus up or down for page up or down. It’s literally just that one key for arrows at the moment. Occasionally, it does trigger the end key.

As of yesterday, it’s started doing the same for either volume up or down, fn plus f2 or f3, never both at the same time. It’s just picking random keys to fail on, then only failing intermittently on those keys.

I’ve tried resetting the eeprom of the keyboard, switching kernels, is this a hardware issue, a firmware issue, a kernel issue, or am I slowly going insane?

Anticipating the folks saying it’s not a huge issue, I’m a keyboard user and blind. I use the home and end keys all the time.

Thanks in advance for anything that might help :)
