[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 597753] Re: Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed
I experience the same problem, since one week now - and only on Ubuntu, not on Windows. I have a quiet new keyboard and just re-seated the connector on the mainboard (its a notebook). The problem is still there (only on Ubuntu) - so I can quiet sure exclude any hardware issues. I have no flash activated and experience the problem on gedit, evolution and in the browser. So I think this has nothing to do with the software that is being used. The problem goes away usually after some seconds or minutes of inactivity. Sometimes I have the impression, that it is being caused by Ctrl+Shift combinations, but this might be pure chance, since it definitely happened after simple keypresses (like Return), too. Yes, I'm a fast writer. I was already guessing for something like Orca interfering, but all this is completely disabled. I just made some user-defined settings in keystroke-combinations settings dialogue, but I can't see anything strange, there. Help would really be appreciated, thanks.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 597753] Re: Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed
Ok, The issue still occurs with the GDK fix disabled. I must note however that the same fix is in place in order for flash to work decently https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin- nonfree/+bug/410407 and most of the time some flash stuff is running in the back due to an open browser. Still most cases of occurrence is in eclipse and while using left hand shortkeys (like ctrl+space). I'm still uncertain about the undo effect. Afaik, I need to leave eclipse focus (like going to gedit) and than pressing some combo of ctrl, shift and capslock seems to undo it eventually (maybe tab is involved). Not necessarily from the first try. -- Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I'm not sure if it is the only case when it occurs, but most of the times it seems to be triggered while using auto completion (ctrl+space) in Eclipse. Currently I'm using Eclipse 3.5.1 downloaded independently (not from Ubuntu repository). I remember that (at leat in Ubuntu 9.10) there was a gtk/swt bug that forced me to use following startup script. export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1 ~/localapps/eclipse/eclipse I'll disable that, and see if it makes any difference. -- Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Thing I forgot to mention. I was unable to undo the effect while Eclipse had focus. Giving focus to gedit helped out. -- Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/597753 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
