I'm not sure about the responsible package, that's why I hesitated to mark it as a duplicate. I could reproduce bug #837456 anywhere, but this one seems to be restricted to Ubuntu-GNOME. I want to check what exactly Onboard does when it happens too. Haven't had time yet.
Wayland support is on my list, but there isn't much progress beyond displaying the keyboard yet. XTest, XKb, XInput and plenty of regular X trickery have to be replaced. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to onboard in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1562381 Title: Typing special characters with non-US layout get repeated indefinitely Status in onboard package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Typing special characters like .,:;-()"@# (and other) or numbers with non-US keyboard layout get repeated indefinitely, like this: тест...............................................................................................
