NOTE TO ALL: Please check whether you have this bug described here (repeating stops by itself), or whether it is bug #194214 you are experiencing instead (*endless* key repeats that "transfer" to other open applications and can only be stopped by X server reset, can probably be reproduced by holding down a key and lots of mouse activity). If you have bug #194214 (such as Derek and Dana Goyette), please look there for a patch that fixes the issue. If you have this bug instead, please try to upgrade your kernel to 2.6.24-2-386 or later ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/124406/comments/58 ), which seemed to have fixed the problem for some. If you are certain you have *this* bug, please report back after the kernel upgrade, and tell us whether it worked or not. -- Keyboard keys get stuck and repeat (Feisty, Gutsy) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/124406 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
