Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/6860
startx is a command in Xorg to start the window manager or desktop, when using firejail to run startx, the started GUI can't accept any inputs, e.g, mouse movements, keyboard, touchpad, Ctrl+Alt+F2 doesn't work. I tried to send Ctrl+Alt+F2 to forcibly switch to the terminal to kill Xorg, but that compound key doesn't work.

Firejail 0.9.74, started LXQT by startx in sandbox, and it can't receive mouse and keyboard signals.
