Ctrl keys don't work, need to debug hardware or software

Neither of the ctrl keys work. I have a Lenovo Yoga 13 with OpenSUSE 15, and have set the BIOS to switch the left ctrl with Fn. In that case the left ctrl (now mapped to Fn) works.
I get nothing on showkey -k on tty1.
How do I make sure if it's a hardware issue or software?

You can run xev command and check keysyms/keycodes output.
Little white box will popup, press Ctrl and check the output.
