Title: Key 5 automatically pressed on some Logitech wireless keyboards Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux source package in Precise: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Trusty: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Vivid: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Wily: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: I have a K520 Logitech keyboard and sometimes something starts to keep pressing key 5. It mostly happens when I leave the computer alone for some time, but sometimes also just during regular usage. It seems that this is a Linux specific issue as no one is complaining about this issue under Windows, but a couple of people are complaining for different versions of Ubuntu. It is always 5 and WladyXX3740 claims on the Logitech forum that: "happens on Ubuntu 15.10 and 16.04, does not happen on Ubuntu 15.04, probably kernel related." Here is where most of the people are complaining: https://forums.logitech.com/t5/Keyboards-and-Keyboard-Mice/Ubuntu-15-10-and-K520-key-5-automatically-pressed-resulting-in/td-p/1488639 I discovered that this is related to my Logitech keyboard by running this command: xinput test-xi2 --root Here is the device list: ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech K520 id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Logitech M310/M310t id=11 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint Stick id=15 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad id=14 [slave pointer (2)] ⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)] ↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Integrated_Webcam_HD id=12 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Sleep Button id=9 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Power Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ DELL Wireless hotkeys id=16 [slave keyboard (3)] ↳ Dell WMI hotkeys id=17 [slave keyboard (3)] And some extract from the output when this happens: EVENT type 2 (KeyPress) device: 10 (10) detail: 14 flags: root: 449.00/427.00 event: 449.00/427.00 buttons: modifiers: locked 0x10 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0x10 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: windows: root 0xf6 event 0xf6 child 0x36000f8 EVENT type 12 (PropertyEvent) property: 308 'Synaptics Off' changed: modified EVENT type 2 (KeyPress) device: 10 (10) detail: 14 flags: repeat root: 449.00/427.00 event: 449.00/427.00 buttons: modifiers: locked 0x10 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0x10 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: windows: root 0xf6 event 0xf6 child 0x36000f8 EVENT type 2 (KeyPress) device: 10 (10) detail: 14 flags: repeat root: 449.00/427.00 event: 449.00/427.00 buttons: modifiers: locked 0x10 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0x10 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: windows: root 0xf6 event 0xf6 child 0x36000f8 EVENT type 2 (KeyPress) device: 10 (10) detail: 14 flags: repeat root: 449.00/427.00 event: 449.00/427.00 buttons: modifiers: locked 0x10 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0x10 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: windows: root 0xf6 event 0xf6 child 0x36000f8 EVENT type 2 (KeyPress) device: 10 (10) detail: 14 flags: repeat root: 449.00/427.00 event: 449.00/427.00 buttons: modifiers: locked 0x10 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0x10 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: windows: root 0xf6 event 0xf6 child 0x36000f8 EVENT type 2 (KeyPress) device: 10 (10) detail: 14 flags: repeat root: 449.00/427.00 event: 449.00/427.00 buttons: modifiers: locked 0x10 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0x10 group: locked 0 latched 0 base 0 effective: 0 valuators: windows: root 0xf6 event 0xf6 child 0x36000f8 ...
