I don't know if it is from kernel 2.6.30 or if something else changed, |
| 2 |
but my keyboard does not behave as normal. It seems like the "key up" |
| 3 |
signal from the previous key is causing the repeat of the current key |
| 4 |
to get interrupted. This happens everywhere, not only in X, but in |
| 5 |
console as well. |

|
| 7 |
For example, try this: Type some text, like |
| 8 |
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX and then hold left arrow. Your |
| 9 |
cursor will move to the left until you release the key. Now try to |
| 10 |
hold the right arrow after you've already been holding the left arrow. |
| 11 |
It will start to move to the right. Previously, it would continue |
| 12 |
moving to the right after you released the left arrow. Now, the |
| 13 |
keyboard repeat STOPS once you release the PREVIOUS key. So, in other |
| 14 |
words, the repeating of the right arrow is stopped when I release the |
| 15 |
left arrow... which causes the cursor to stop, and causes me to become |
| 16 |
aggravated. :P |

Has anyone else noticed this? I hope it's not a new "feature" :) Maybe |
| 19 |
later tonight I'll try to go back to 2.6.29 and see if this truly was |
| 20 |
the thing that brought on this change. |
