Does anyone know of a fix for the Toshiba keyboard bounce (common for alot of Toshiba laptop) for Fedora.

I have tried the fixes found on google, with no luck.

Thanks,
Mike

Can you please describe the "keyboard bounce" problem? I have a problem of a "jumping cursor" when I'm writing on my Toshiba Satellite laptop (the cursor sometimes jumps to another place with no apparent reason)- could it be it? It'd be nice to know of a fix... :(

To all those suffering the 'jumping cursor' problem: switch off the touch-pad (using the tiny button located just above it) and use the mouse for texting or editing. When you use the mouse and the touch-pad is switched off the cursor does not jump.
