Public bug reported: A brand new Dell Latitude E7450, with a fresh installation of Ubuntu 14.04.2. Sometimes a pressed key repeats until another key is pressed. This is presumably a BIOS bug.
Here's a discussion about it in Dell's community website (http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/software- os/f/3525/p/19618638/20748484). Since Canonical have certified this model (http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201408-15385/), I have opened a launchpad question (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu- certification/+question/264500) about it. Since Dell works closely with Canonical on their products, I was wondering whether Canonical can get a formal reply from Dell about this issue (which apparently affects most if not all Linux distributions). ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: bcmwl (Ubuntu) => ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bcmwl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1439850 Title: Dell Latitude E7450: repeating keystrokes issue Status in Ubuntu: New Bug description: A brand new Dell Latitude E7450, with a fresh installation of Ubuntu 14.04.2.
