[Bug 310270] Re: Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times
Ciso, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-evdev REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

I can confirm that this bug is still NOT fixed in KDE. I have M1330 too and face this bug even when an external USB keyboard is attached.

[Bug 310270] Re: Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times
This isn't fixed. The problem is that the silly touch-sensitive media keys on the m1330 act as though they were pressed for nearly 0.7 seconds, regardless of how long you actually touch them. You can work around the problem by setting your typematic rate initial delay to 700 milliseconds or more. This is the solution described above. However, this is just a workaround, and it's annoyting, because 700 ms is too long a delay for me. I know this problem is solvable, because the keys work correctly in GNOME. I think GNOME does things through dbus instead of watching directly for key press events. -- Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310270 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdemultimedia in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

I recently SOLVED this issue, sorry if I didn't wrote an update here. The trick (I'm not completely sure) was going to KDE System Settings Keyboard and mouse, and playing a bit with Enable keyboard repeat in the Keyboard page. Maybe I just activated then deactivated it, then my problems with multimedia keys are gone. As I told you, I'm not completely sure on what resolved the multiple key presses issue, but I was playing with settings in that page and suddenly the issue is gone (also after rebooting the system). -- Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310270 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdemultimedia in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

I've been having the same problem for some time, it's also persistent with the latest KDE 4 version (KDE 4.2.90 (KDE 4.3 Beta2)) from Kubuntu Backports. All multimedia keys are affected, just as you described it used to work in KDE 3.5.10 (8.04). -- Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310270 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 310270] Re: Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times
I added a new comment on kde bugtracker, I copy it also here. -- I have new info. I'm using synergy at work to control both my workstation and my XPS1330 from a single keyboard and mouse. synsergy server is launched on the workstation, and synergy client is running on the XPS1330. I noticed that in this situation (synergys and synergyc running), if I move the mouse on the XPS1330 screen (to control the XPS1330 via synergy) the laptop multimedia keys work correctly inside KDE session and with KMix running. Just one keypress at a time is detected. If I move the mouse outside XPS1330 screen (I move back the mouse on the workstation), the multimedia keys return to the bad behavior, and multiple key presses are detected upon a single real key press. So new info here: - It's something related to Xorg (synergy uses Xorg to control multiple PCs over the network with a single keyboard and mouse) - It's related to KDE, because outside KDE (see my previous comments) the multimedia keys work correctly. I see no activity on this bug, maybe because the issue is not related directly to Kmix. Can you please point me to the right place to report this issue? XPS1330 is very well supported on Linux, and this issue on multimedia keys is very annoying to me.

[Bug 310270] Re: Dell XPS M1330 volume keys as pressed two times
I confirm this bug on Kubuntu Jaunty 9.04 (freshly upgraded from Intrepid) on a Dell XPS M1330. All multimedia keys worked fine for me in KDE 3.5 and I see this wrong behavior since KDE 4.1 (the first version I tried on Kubuntu 8.10). I have attached in the related bug on KDE bugtracker (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=178501) three different tests I just perfomed using xev and hitting two different buttons (Mute and VolumeDown) _just one time_. The first test is done outside KDE (I opened a second X server and launched xev from a xterm there, see attachment comments in the KDE bugtracker). You can see that only two key presses/releases are correctly detected. The second test is done in a KDE 4.2 session, after closing KMix. You can see that multiple key presses/releases are wrongly detected. The third test is done in a KDE 4.2 session, with KMix running. You can see that only multiple releases are detected (here also some focus changes are visible). KMix seems to steal key presses, but not key releases. My conclusions from these tests are the following: - It is not an hardware problem. - It is not a kernel/driver problem. - It is not a Xorg bug (at least not Xorg taken alone). - It is related to KDE (outside a KDE session keys presses/releases are detected correctly). - It is not a KMix bug, multiple key presses/releases are detected also after closing KMix, but I don't know if it's normal that KMix is stealing key presses, but not key releases from xev output. So the question remains: what is the best place to report this bug? I conclude saying that sometimes, but rarely, something magic happens (maybe when I play with xev) and suddendly all buttons begin to work correctly inside KDE and with KMix running. Today it happened just one time, but after a reboot the multiple key presses/releases came back. :( I don't know what triggered the correct behavior; if I will discover it, I will write here a follow up.
