Hash: SHA1

Having just put together a diminutive desktop based around IceWM, I noticed 
that 
mozilla-totem had a missing dependency on dbus to enable Firefox to control 
Totem. 
As soon as I had installed dbus, keyboard input inside X became VERY sluggish:  
duplicated keystrokes, skipped kestrokes, etc. Removing dbus instantly fixed it.

As a second test, I force-removed (dpkg -P --force-depends dbus) dbus on my 
main 
desktop, which runs GNOME, and on which sluggish keyboard operation crept in 
back 
a few GNOME versions ago (presumably when evolution, gnome-screensaver or 
rhythmbox 
started to depend upon dbus). Same effect: MUCH smoother keyboard input without 
dbus.

It therefore seems that I have accidentally found a source of keyboard input 
hindrance
inside X, with dbus as the cause.  

It would probably be a good idea to forward this bug report to upstream.
