I was trying to use xbindkeys to control the power on/off a monitor through an wireless keyboard.
Such remote keyboard has a peculiarity: It emits short pulses of infrared signals to the USB base. Each long keypress in the keyboard is transmited as a row of about 20 pairs per second of keypress/keyrelease events. Through xbindkeys I associate a given key code to the script that will actually switch on/off the monitor. First tests worked fine, but the problem comes when I press for a long time (maybe two or three seconds) a key. Then X randomly start an infinite loop an I have no other option that killing and restarting the X system. I'm really interested in fixing the problem source since this is the last piece in a puzzle to finish my project, but I don't known exactly where to look at. I would appreciate any help or hint or link to start tracing in the X source files to find a solution Regards, Enrique
