11 Hmm, sounds like this bug: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97425
12 What version of KDE are you using now? Here 3.4.1.

21 But holding Shift for eight seconds doesn't actually enable Slow
22 keys, also there is no confirmation dialog (although it is ticked).
23 Pressing Shift five times _does_ activate Sticky keys (and it asks
24 first when ticked). Hmm, there is definitely something wrong with
25 these Accessibility things.
