An additional note: I can reproduce this in a simple console window
(alt-ctrl-f6 window), so I doubt it's Gnome.
I ran strace of a ksh session where this is happening, and it shows that
read() is receiving \16 (control-N) instead of the "n" that I'm typing.
I don't know if this gives any additiona
Additional note is that this only happens with my left control key. Not
the right control key. And it is very reproducible so I'm happy to
provide any additional logs I can.
I'm attaching some xev output which shows, near the bottom, an example
of it being stuck. Where it is saying this:
KeyPress
I have a brand new laptop (HP Pavillion DV5) with a brand new Intrepid
installation. I can reproduce this at will whenever I launch emacs - the
control key appears stuck, and even after exiting emacs it is stuck for
a short while. It also seems to randomly get stuck when I'm not using
emacs.
Pleas
