Does anyone else suffer this ailment? In KDE, my right ctrl key is sending ctrl AND THEN a linefeed. It is REALLY annoying.
It's a PS/2 Dell keyboard and I use a Dell USB mouse. This doesn't happen at the console. bill$ xmodmap xmodmap: up to 4 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses): shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e) lock Caps_Lock (0x42) control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x69) mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x6c), Meta_L (0xcd) mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d) mod3 mod4 Super_L (0x85), Super_R (0x86), Super_L (0xce), Hyper_L (0xcf) mod5 ISO_Level3_Shift (0x5c), Mode_switch (0xcb) My /etc/conf.d/keymaps just has KEYMAP="us" SET_WINDOWKEYS="yes" and that's it. My keyboard layout is for a generic 104-key keyboard. I use a USA layout and a Greece polytonic layout which yields this in the KDE keyboard layout screen: setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us,gr -variant ,polytonic Also, it doesn't repeat. Wow, it gets even more weird. I just ran "startkde" from xinit and with EVERY keystroke I see "kglobalaccel" spewing out EVERY "GlobalShortcutsRegistry::registerKey: Registering key "blah blah blah" for "KDEappgoeshere" : "Shortcut name" and then unregistering the whole set again. I can kill kglobalaccel and it stops the printout, but I still get the weird linefeed when I use the right control key in a terminal. -- Bill Longman
