Package: kde Version: N/A; reported 2004-03-01 Severity: critical Justification: breaks unrelated software
We have found that attempting to use the "b" key under any application in kde from sarge results in (a) "b" not being reported and (b) brief keyboard input failure. This is reported as a critical bug as it does break KDE quite thoroughly, and also breaks any application for which you might want to use the letter b. This problem appears to be intermittent, and seems to be related to the scancode(turning on caps-lock and pressing shift-b does result in a lowercase 'b'). The problem *only* occurs in KDE. The systems are vanilla debian sarge systems(installed today, though the problem has existed since last week). Other relevant information: The systems are Ultra10s. We are using sun keyboards. -- System Information Debian Release: sarge Architecture: sparc64 Kernel: Linux egret 2.4.19 #4 Fri Dec 12 15:12:42 EST 2003 sparc64 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C
