    It would be nice if there was a button or some app that could temporarily disable the keyboard, so it could be cleaned without accidentally changing settings for a running app, writing your boss you are not coming to work on Monday, firing few nukes, or wiping your whole system.

      there’s something like that in Bazzite! If you go to the menu -> system settings -> language -> keyboard, then physically unplug the keyboard, the keyboard should now be disabled!

        I have the keyboard plugged into a monitor and accessing the USB hub is seriously complicated, so that’s not really an option for me.

        But I could try locking the system. I just hope I won’t lock myself out for few hours, because I have pressed Enter multiple times while cleaning it.

          You can use a pair of scissors to terminate the connection anywhere along the wire and it will achieve the same thing

          Create a new local user w/o permissions and switch to that login before cleaning it. That way you only lock a fake user lol.

          Guessing unplugging from the monitor is difficult as well?
