Public bug reported:
I run an up-to-date Jaunty system. I've experienced this problem since
about February when I moved from hardy to jaunty.
Not sure where this bug is hiding. I'm using Gnome, but I have quite a
bit of trouble with keyboard entry where I suspect scim is the culprit.
Help in pinpointing the issue greatly appreciated.
I have four workspaces. It happens at times (not always, but frequently
enough to be annoying, about 25% of the time, I'd say) that when I use
Ctrl+1 to switch to the first workspace for example, that a string of
"11111111111111" is continually input into any text field in the active
window on that workspace. It's almost as if the 1 key was stuck (which
is not the case). When I go to Ctrl+2, it will be "2222222222".
Hitting Esc will usually end any further input. But almost any key I
hit (such as backspace for deletion) will output another "1" or "2"
character. The character is always the same as the workspace number
that I just switched to.
If I was using VoIP at the time this happened, the partner on the other
end of the line and me will hear a regularly recurring beep sound. I'd
say the frequency is either once or twice per second.
