Public bug reported: How to reproduce: 1) On Ubuntu (Gnome) 2008.04 or 2008.10 with SCIM, open Anki. 2) Start adding new facts. 3) Randomly and rarely, after minutes or hours, it becomes impossible to input anything, as if the keyboard did not work anymore. The keyboard is fine though, as I can still use other applications and SCIM works well. 4) The only workaround I have found is to close and restart Anki.
The issue is discussed here: http://code.google.com/p/anki/issues/detail?id=207 I have seen this happening twice with Konqueror too, but I almost never use Konqueror so I can't really say whether it is usual. Closing and reopening the window or application is the only workaround we've found. When I really don't want to close the application yet, I type in the Gnome text editor, copy, and right-click, paste into the application. Anki's maintainer says it is a bug within Qt or SCIM. Thanks ! ** Affects: scim (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Input sometimes randomly stops working, with Qt and SCIM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/314937 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
