2007-07-06 17:26:36 Jérôme Guelfucci None: statusexplanation Thank you for your bug report. Compiz Fusion is not part of Feisty official packages so we can't support it, I'm closing this. If this happens with Feisty's default compiz or with the compiz fusion's official packages in Gutsy, please reopen.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. JeDi seems to indicate that this started happening after a kernel update so it would be useful to know what kernel everyone is experiencing this with. Thanks in advance.

2007-11-10 20:58:28 Guy Gur-Ari description Keyboard keys such as the arrows, Alt-F4, PageUp/PageDown, etc. often get 'stuck' and continue being 'clicked' even after they are physically released. For example when clicking Alt-F4, sometimes it gets stuck so all the windows are closed instead of just one. My configuration is Feisty + Xgl + Compiz Fusion. My previous configuration was Edgy + Xgl + Beryl, where this didn't happen. The Compiz Fusion folks said this is a well-known Xgl problem, but I couldn't find supporting evidence for that. The keyboard itself isn't the problem. When dual-booting to Windows, everything works fine. Also, the problem happens with two different keyboards (internal laptop, external USB).

When dual-booting to Windows, everything works fine. Also, the problem happens with two different keyboards (internal laptop, external USB). My best guess is that the problem occurs at time of high system load. Somehow during these times the key-release signal gets lost and the key-press is repeated indefinitely. This happens more often with Compiz configurations because Compiz tends to increase system load. It also happens more often with power-hungry apps like Firefox and Acrobat Reader for similar reasons.

PS: When the keys would repeat all input devices would be locked up. ie. mouse won't move, clicks don't do anything, keyboard presses don't register. Then when it becomes unstuck, the mouse moves around and everything. Hope this helps.

2009-02-24 16:24:03 Cruncher emacs: statusexplanation This can't be a bug in Emacs, since I never used Emacs on my machine, and never will. To my knowledge it has been established that this bug affects *many* applications, and also seems to be more frequent in certain hardware setups. All this points to it being a deeply embedded problem, most likely of the kernel, and not a bug of any application sitting several layers above the keyboard handling.
