The check() function suspends the input handler task (xHandle) for ~10ms each time it is called. In ScrollableTextArea::show(), the update() function calls check() multiple times, creating brief windows where keyboard input is not being scanned. A quick tap of Enter during one of these suspension windows was silently swallowed, making the screen appear unresponsive. Fixed by: - Adding a 200ms delay before the wait loop to drain any buffered input - Adding EscPress as an alternative exit path (ESC key)

Description
The ScrollableTextArea
show()function (used by Host Info screen) could become unresponsive to the Enter key due to a race condition with the input handler.Root Cause
The
check()function suspends the input handler task (xHandle) for ~10ms each time it is called. InScrollableTextArea::show(), theupdate()function callscheck()multiple times (PrevPress, NextPress) before eachdraw(), creating brief windows where keyboard input is not being scanned. A quick tap of Enter during one of these suspension windows was silently swallowed, making the screen appear frozen.Fix
delay(200)before the wait loop to drain any buffered input after the content is displayedTesting
