Title:
  keyboard autorepeat not happening when I hold down any key

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The failure to auto repeat happens in all terminal apps I've tried in
  Artful. If I open a virtual console, it looks like a phantom is typing
  ^@ about once per second. This prevents successfully typing a
  password, and is probably what is breaking autorepeat in the GUI
  terminals, although they don't show the ^@.  Gnome terminal and guake
  also can't stay scrolled up in the buffer for more than a second
  before popping back down to the bottom.

  This problem happens in the Ubuntu desktop or Gnome and it doesn't
  matter if I pick the xorg or default Wayland options. It happens under
  both the open source and proprietary nvidia drivers. It also happens
  with a newly created user with no home directory baggage.

  xev reports a constant stream of the following about the same frequency as 
the ^@ in console:
  KeyPress event, serial 62, synthetic NO, window 0x381,
  root 0x1dd, subw 0x0, time 2243032, (20,-13), root:(1375,501),
  state 0x10, keycode 221 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
  XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
  XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
  XFilterEvent returns: False

  
  If I boot into a recovery shell, the problem does _not_ appear. 

  My system was built with a fresh install of 17.04, installed my usual
  packages, then upgrade to 17.10 when the problem began. I'm certain it
  was not present in 17.04 for the few days before I upgraded. There
  were similar bugs reported a decade ago, but didn't help me.

  Expectation: Hold down any key in terminal window. After a moment, the
  letter should repeat until key is released.

  Actually: Key will repeat 0 or a few times, but stop repeating before
  I release the key.

2017-10-22 Thread Jim Kolberg
I finally got the evemu program to work, same results as above. Now that
I know what module, there are lot of other reports. Looks like a
longterm fix is coming from upstream. Sorry for the dupe, but thanks for
helping track it down and workaround.

"sudo rmmod peaq_wmi" also fixed the problem for me (thanks Ronaldo!).

peaq_wmi was spamming ^@ non stop. It made the system complete
nonoperational, insane lag and it crashed after some time when a text

  The failure to auto repeat happens in all terminal apps I've tried in

I'm having the same problem, following Marius Tip theres one Input

annoying, it interrupts all key holdings (even the arrow ones, ugh). The

2017-10-20 Thread Marius Gedminas
This doesn't look like a terminal problem.  It looks like a kernel
problem -- some input device is spamming fake key press events.

It would be useful if you could determine which device is sending these
events.  I would run `sudo evemu-record`, pick each device in turn, to
see if it sees repeating events or not.

I wanted to open this while my PC was still in an "upgraded" state, but
I just did a clean install of 17.10 with today's daily image and the
problem persists as reported. I can even reproduce it booting off the
the install media and clicking the Try Ubuntu option. Any advice on
narrowing it down is welcome.

Title:
  keyboard autorepeat not happening when I hold down any key

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The failure to auto repeat happens in all terminal apps I've tried in
  Artful. If I open a virtual console, it looks like a phantom is typing
  ^@ about once per second. This prevents successfully typing a
  password, and is probably what is breaking autorepeat in the GUI
  terminals, although they don't show the ^@.  Gnome terminal and guake
  also can't stay scrolled up in the buffer for more than a second
  before popping back down to the bottom.

  This problem happens in the Ubuntu desktop or Gnome and it doesn't
  matter if I pick the xorg or default Wayland options. It happens under
  both the open source and proprietary nvidia drivers. It also happens
  with a newly created user with no home directory baggage.

  xev reports a constant stream of the following about the same frequency as 
the ^@ in console:
  KeyPress event, serial 62, synthetic NO, window 0x381,
  root 0x1dd, subw 0x0, time 2243032, (20,-13), root:(1375,501),
  state 0x10, keycode 221 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
  XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
  XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
  XFilterEvent returns: False

  
  If I boot into a recovery shell, the problem does _not_ appear. 

  My system was built with a fresh install of 17.04, installed my usual
  packages, then upgrade to 17.10 when the problem began. I'm certain it
  was not present in 17.04 for the few days before I upgraded. There
  were similar bugs reported a decade ago, but didn't help me.

  Expectation: Hold down any key in terminal window. After a moment, the
  letter should repeat until key is released.

  Actually: Key will repeat 0 or a few times, but stop repeating before
  I release the key.
