I had the same log but the action was different. Situations where I get the same messages: - connect/disconnect my secondary keyboard - when I press a key on the first keyboard and then I press the key on the second keyboard - on same keyboard: pressing on a letter key and then using an FN key combination
After a while, causing a delay in the response when a key was pressed. After some testing, I removed the "gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock" package and no longer had this problem. To have the dock showing again, I installed the "Dash to Dock" extension and had to disable (using Gnome Tweak Tool) the option "Use keyboard shortcuts to activate apps" (in Behavior extension tab). With this option enabled, messages continue to appear as normal. With Wayland I had no problem because apparently the "Ubuntu Dock" extension is disabled by default. When activated, I get the same problem as the standard version of the Ubuntu installation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777708 Title: Desktop briefly becomes unresponsive when typing on 2 keyboards at the same time Status in GNOME Shell: Unknown Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 and Gnome 3.28.1 with all the latest updates from the repos. If I connect 2 (or more) keyboards to my computer and type on both at the same time, the desktop briefly becomes unresponsive. More keypresses increase the time of unresponsiveness. E.g. when typing a full sentence in gedit or the terminal, only very few characters show up on the screen (I guess up until something is pressed on both keyboards at the same time), then everything freezes. Then after a while (some seconds), all the characters show up. And the desktop becomes responsive again. Symptoms: During the freeze, windows stop updating their content. If seconds are enabled on the clock at the top middle, these freeze too. But I'm still able to move the mouse pointer around during the freeze without any problems. The back story: I got an ergonomic keyboard (R-Go Split Keyboard) yesterday, and quickly noticed the issue. But initiallly I thought it was an issue with the keyboard, and the problem wasn't that bad. But as I've gotten more used to the keyboard since yesterday and started picking up a proper typing speed, things got worse. The keyboard is technically two separate cabled USB keyboards each with only about half of they keys of a normal keyboard (or at least that's very much my impression). After getting the suspicion that this was a software issue, not a hardware issue, I tried typing on my old Logitech keyboard (Unifying Receiver) along with one of the R-Go halves: Same issue. Then I tried each of the halves without the other (as in "single" keyboard typing): No issue. Then I connected another Logitech keyboard (separate UR), typed on both Logitechs: Same issue. Some further observations: 1) Nothing of significance in my syslog. 2) If I drop to a non-graphical shell, there's no problem. I suspect this issue is related to X.org or Gnome, but I'm in no position to say anything credible about that. 3) Also no problems when connecting the R-Go keyboard to a Windows or a MacOS machine. Let me know if there are any logs I can provide or things I can run to produce useful debug output.
