I consider myself an experienced user and had a very hard time figuring
out this. I have had this problem many times, and the only solution I
figured out until now was to reboot.
The problem is Slow Keys are being enabled in GDM even though I'm long
ago logged in, and that anti-feature should be
root@ignacio-laptop:/var/log/gdm# tail :0.log
(II) XKB SlowKeys are now enabled. Hold shift to disable.

Title:
slow keys can turn on surreptitiously cause confusion.
Sorry, I had to set this to confirmed as I think is a problem that
affects many people. The only request that many of us are doing is to
disable this function as default. This is my story:
Using: Xubuntu Quantal 32bits
I use one of my servers remotely using x11vnc + remmina. Sometimes it
happens
For a solution that worked for me, you can look at the comment linked
here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=816764#c42
Pasting here:
Create a new file in /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/ with a number prefix (the highest one
in the directory, e.g. 01-no-a11y-keyboard) with the following content:
Yet another highly irritated Xfce user here. Just use gdm instead of
gdm3.

I was hit by this on 12.04 with Xfce (not sure if this belongs in a
different bug), which doesn't seem to have any way to permanently
disable from its config panel. Took we a while to figure out how to
type at all in order to search for what I'd done -- and it was very
difficult to hold the key
My proposal is simple: just KILL this feature.
Rationale: just count number of related bug reports. It is constantly
causing problems. It's very hard to google properly (especially with
keyboard that types one character per second). Just recently I
discovered that Gnome 3 doesn't actually offer
Based on the very good points in the many comments, with regards to both Gnome
and KDE, I suggest:
- reopening bug
- marking as Critical or highest level
- tagging as 'keyboard' and ' usability'
- also affects Kubuntu

See bug 758335: this can happen very easily in gdm and the results are
very confusing.

I also ran in to this usability bug.
Which was very annoying, i as other didnt see any window popup before it was
activated.
I lost about 1 hour of work time just before a deadline. Because there was no
clue
that slow keys was enabled. I also tried reinstalling Xorg, an many other
workarounds
Forgot to write the terminal command for the prefrence menu:
is is.

Wrong solution, sorry: this works (for me!) I think there should be a faq about
this somewhere.
And that default behaviour should be changed.
The solution? To go into the settings for the assistive technologies:
System Preferences Keyboard /Accessability/ [ ] Accessability Features
can be
reboot and the same thing happened.
this time I removed 1 peripheral file at a time and the problem (for me)
is when you set the mouse to be left handed -- I don't recall changing
the cursor size. Removing this file fixed it so my input (from keyboard)
works. Here are the details:
Umm... never mind my last comment about the left_handed mouse... I
logged out and back and input worked with left-handed set (but not
cursor_size)
$ cat .gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/mouse/%gconf.xml
?xml version=1.0?
gconf
entry name=left_handed mtime=1280437857 type=bool value=true/
I have hit this bug before many times on previous versions of Ubuntu and
now on Lucid (10.04). Usually, I go to tty1 (CTRL+ALT+F1 works) and then
I kill compiz, which magically restores my keyboard and mouse input.
This time that didn't work so I left the window open and went to another
computer
I'll add my vote here, I inadvertently enabled this and even after
looking at the setup didn't think to disable the accessibility or even
to disable slow keys it just didn't seem intuitively related (nor did
I know what slow keys was). I had a good hour in this bug before I
found this and was

Adding my vote that this feature, and all ways to accidentally activate
it by keys or gestures, MUST BE OFF BY DEFAULT.
I just had this problem with Kubuntu 9.04. Apparently it was turned on
by some gesture I did while playing in Google Earth. There was no
warning whatsoever. This is
Shouldn't the package of this bug be changed? This is not only an issue
in gnome-control-center, but also in KDE. It looks like it is disabled
by default in KDE4, but I can not confirm this.
