Jun 14, 2020 at 9:22 comment added matanox I think I would warmly suggest not trying something like watch -n 0 xdotool key "XF86LogGrabInfo" for forcing the logging of grabs on a tight loop; it ended up somehow rigging my key mapping to the extent that resetting the keyboard layout from a console login was necessary to regain the ability to enter my password on the login screen :-)) the key mapping was rigged even in console mode requiring a hefty amount of intuition to figure how to get keys to actually produce latin text for the recovery commands :-\
