That's what I got (actually I have the HID messages interspersed). I

I see. I never assumed they'd be the same, because two different devices
on the ADB bus (or whatever the Lombard fakes to look like ADB) are
involved. So we need to do the same for the keyboard device as for the
trackpad: store it's device state before sleep. We just need a way to
locate it :-)

I need to try that - just got it to work for me at all :-) Maybe the
trackpad state also sticks now ??

Shouldn't have changed much in the ADB code, I guess?
