Subject: Keys get stuck
Date: Wed, 12 Mar 2008 00:32:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <f188924b0803111632h3c122ec7x1be171edd0884dee@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I (and many others) have a problem.
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron" (alpha).
xorg 1:7.3+10ubuntu6
Linux ubuntu 2.6.24-12-generic #1 SMP Mon Mar 10 15:32:00 UTC 2008
i686 GNU/Linux
MSI P35 Neo motherboard with a HP USB keyboard.
Sometimes the keys get "stuck" and it keeps on repeating the button
all the time.
It often happen when I play games, that it repeats one of the arrow keys.
Now this is a problem that lots of people have experienced.
I've experienced it with other kernels too.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/194214
It is a very annoying bug, that happens to many users.
Restarting Xorg solves the problem.
Someone said this was a problem with dynticks, but I don't know.
Does anyone know what is causing this problem, and how to fix it?
As I don't subscribe to this list, I would like to get a reply sent to my email.
