Title:
"slow keys" can turn on surreptitiously & cause confusion.
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I was editing some huge photos with the gimp and it had a swapping
fit; I pressed various keys, clicked various things, generally did
what any user does when an application hangs for a while.
For some reason, gnome's "slow keys" feature turned on during all this
chaos---presumably because gnome thought the shift key was held down
for N seconds, I don't know---and I was totally confused when my keys
became, predictably, "slow."
This seems like something that could happen to dapper users. Maybe
there should be a
[x] Activate "slow keys" by holding down the shift key.
config toggle that is off by default, or something...
