At the beginning I thought is was a hardware problem, even if it started immediately after I upgraded to CVS radeon driver. But then, I noticed that the problem I am describing below doesn't show up in text mode (vt 1-6), so it must be related with X.
The (pretty annoying) problem is the following one: after pressing the shift key and releasing it, the next key I hit sometimes behave like the shift key were still pressed. The problem shows up in an interesting (?) and sistematic way.... it is not at all random! Here are some examples. Example 1 (bad): press the shift key (don't press any other key at the same time), release the shift key, then press several times the "a" key, this is what you get: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Example 2 (bad): press and release the shift key twice (no other key pressed at the same time), then press several times the "a" key: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA in this situation, if I hit the shift key and release it once, then: aaaaaaaa Example 3 (good): now press and release the shift key three times: aaaaaaaaaa Example 4 (bad): press and release shift key four times: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (back to example 1) Example 5 (good): if I type "Daniele" like it should be... everything is OK. Similar problems with other special keys (ctrl, alt). Is this a known problem (I couldn't find it in the archives). Any hint on how to fix it? BTW... I upgraded to CVS to take advantage of the suspend/resume capabilities... but I cannot resume correctly (swsusp) if using dri (with no acceleration everything is fine). Hope you can help me, Daniele ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
