Comment 3 for bug 191181

Same problem here. Sticky keys works for less than a minute and then shuts itself off. Probably, it thinks the shutoff feature is checked, but I'm sure it's not.

For me, sticky keys are essential, so I have shifted over to using kde exclusively until this bug gets fixed.

BTW, this also occurred on gutsy and feisty.

The underlying program is xorg (accessx), but since it works on kde, it must be related to the way gnome sets it up.
