Sorry about the long delay. Your reply got buried over a weekend. I'm not the only one seeing this: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/kde4-up-key-stops-working-sporadically-828016/ Unlike the author of that post, I haven't remapped any of my keys. Everything should be stock. Right now I am seeing this on two machines. One is a Dell Optiplex GX620 desktop, amd64 with on-board Intel graphics. The other is an HP e4100 desktop, amd64 with on-board ATI graphics. I am *NOT* seeing it on an HP dv9000 laptop with on-board Nvidia graphics. (I include the graphics chipset as I thought it might be an Xorg driver issue.) How I can reproduce: 1) Log in to KDE. The up arrow works fine. 2) Log out of KDE. Log back in again. The up-arrow does not work. 3) Log out of KDE, and restart the X server. Log back in, the up arrow works. Repeat. So I work around it by restarting the X server before I log in -- the up arrow will work for the FIRST login session. After that it will be ignored until I restart the X server again. The TERM environment is: xterm James Z -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
