I'm seeing a very similar problem. But mine isn't fixed as of Oct 28. I considered filing a separate bug but this one looks so similar, I decided to add info here.
Keyboard events work in "bursts". Very frequently, the keyboard echo is delayed. Related: my keyboard repeat is set to be fast (50 per sec) but it pauses every 12 chars for about half a sec. It looks like xorg is too loaded/busy to handle the character interrupt rate. If I disable desktop effects, the situation becomes a bit better but keys are much slower than 50 chars/sec as they used to work under hardy and KDE-3.5 Attaching my Xorg.0.log ** Attachment added: "trimmed (for brevity) Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18977245/Xorg.0.log -- suddenly keyboard event recognition gets really slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/227359 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
