Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-applets
Stickykeys hasn't worked properly for a while. See here for previous issues: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/191181 Since upgrading to jaunty, the above problem doesn't occur - it seems to remember it's settings. However, it's not quite behaving as expected. Several issues appear to be happening, haven't yet been able to determine how to reproduce both. OK, when it's working (ie, when keys can be stuck/locked and the notification applet lights up), mouse clicks are not registered as events. Eg: I hit ctrl, once. This lights up the [^] icon on the notification applet. I would normally expect the key to unlock after pressing a key or clicking the mouse. Pressing a key causes the expected behavior, but clicking a mouse button does not. This remains consistent while stickykeys is responding. However, sometimes the whole stickykeys business just stop working. Gconf/accessibility applet reports stickykeys is enabled, but the notification applet will not light up when pressing a key. Stickykeys is not enabled. I haven't yet found a workaround/fix other than restarting X and hoping it works. This problem is not consistent. Not sure if gnome-applets is where the problem lies, but it's the package that has the notification applet in, and seemed the most appropriate from the likely looking choices. If anyone knows better than I, please do leave a comment. m...@ione:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 m...@ione:~$ apt-cache policy gnome-applets gnome-applets: Installed: 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 2.26.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty-updates/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.26.0-0ubuntu4 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages ** Affects: gnome-applets (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- stickykeys behaving unpredictably (gnome/jaunty) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/383649 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
