Hi Sebastien, I believe my comment #13 has been incorrectly interpreted. I wrote it in response to someone "assigning" this bug to gnome-bugs #673055 (I received a notification of the change). I wanted to make sure we don't end up interpreting the upstream bug as a fix for this one and hence wait

Hi Sebastien, I understand. Please read comment #14 in bug #801763 and also see the upstream bug I filed. Essentially, there is better way to deal with it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu

gnome-bugs #673055 is not really fix for this bug (it's fix for bug #801763). The fix is to remove Ubuntu patch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-settings- daemon/ubuntu/view/head:/debian/patches/10_smaller_syndaemon_timeout.patch -- You received this bug notification because yo

Apparently, the above patch was introduced as a response to bug #801763. The right way to have fixed that bug would have been to introduce -t option to syndaemon, rather than reducing the timeout. And I think it should be fixed in upstream g-s-d because I can understand that bug being sometimes ann

Hi, By reducing the upstream default 2 sec timout, this fix introduces a severe usability issue for macbook pro users like me. See lp #962958. Getting to your original bug: "1.) Type a few key strokes. 2.) Try to move the cursor using the touchpad." That issue can be easily fixed by adding -t o
