Keys Stuck Sometimes

hceylan · #1 27th December 2009, 02:57 AM

Does anyone other then me observe he weird thing with the keyboard, every now and then keyboard behaves as if a key is stuck and - say I'm on console - it keeps printing the same character.

I have been seeing this since F12 - alpha.

Any information?

Regards,

I haven't seen this before and I am using F12 since Alpha, too. I am using Gnome, by the way. I guess you are sure that it is not a problem with your keyboard?

Yes, I am sure,

I use KDE. and also I've changed my laptop recently and experienced on both. I also see on my team members laptops...

Are these laptops the same model than yours?

No, actually all of them are different...

It's becoming worse every day. Really annoying while playing games.

I tried to turn off the key-presses-repeat function in the keyboard preferences, but it only works until next reboot (but it's still turned off).

I would like to open a bug report, but i dunno which details or informations could be useful.

I see it too...it seems quite random. My computer is a Dell Latitude D630.

I guess not, because i use Gnome and the most time it annoys me is, when i play Counter-Strike and my character still walks in a direction though i released the key.
