Any suggestions? thanks, ajay Try an external keyboard. You can probably find a replacement / used keyboard on ebay. Lenovo's are usually not to hard to open and replace parts. Go to Lenovo's site and look for a manual to download. Or, search YouTube for a video on keyboard replacement for your model. -- Roger linux@gmail.com -- xubuntu-users mailing list xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users

Borrow another and see if the same happens. If not, trash it and buy a new one. If the same happens, it's not the keyboard.
