Nothing relevant

I'm not sure if this is related or you are experiencing this too, but with the on screen keyboard disabled under accessibility settings it does not show on touch events, gesture, or with the button in the panel. With the accessibility setting enabled, the pull up gesture still does not work, but the panel button works.

at least the gesture issue seems to be upstream https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/5335

I cannot type into a password field either. Keyboard shows but is unresponsive.

The keyboard seems disabled when entering passwords is system modal windows in gnome (e.g. wifi network password). It shows up correctly but does not accept any touch input.

Resolved upstream.
