[Bug 345397] Re: [patch] Fix ability to modify keyboard repeat rate
I recently upgraded to Jaunty from Intrepid. I had some bizarre keyboard issue where everything repeated thrice with occasional modifiers thrown in that I fixed by removing xserver-xorg-input-kbd that was still floating around, ensuring that evdev was always used. Now I find that left and down repeat fine on login and while running a few apps, but eventually stop working. I haven't yet isolated what triggers the change, but thought I'd chime in that I'm seeing this with 1:2.1.1-1ubuntu4 too, and that it does manage to work initially. Also, after a few hours or days, my keyboard will cease to respond entirely. Removing, waiting, and plugging in to another USB port has no effect, but I only need to log out and back in to restore it, not even a full restart of X or the system. -- [patch] Fix ability to modify keyboard repeat rate https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 345397] Re: [patch] Fix ability to modify keyboard repeat rate
Some more regression discussion: We tried backporting this patch to intrepid, but we found that this produced a regression: some keys such as the left/down arrow keys no longer repeated. The good news is that no one has produced this regression yet using the patched evdev packages in jaunty, but it is something to look out for. Let me be the first to report this then :-( With evdev 1:2.1.1-1ubuntu4 on Jaunty left,down,end no longer repeats. 1:2.1.1-1ubuntu3 works fine. Repeat for those keys can be enabled using xset r 113; xset r 115; xset r 116, as suggested in bug 281546. -- [patch] Fix ability to modify keyboard repeat rate https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This fixes it for my logitech elite keyboard, and all the keys seem to work. -- [patch] Fix ability to modify keyboard repeat rate https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/345397 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
