Comment 3 for bug 365964

Did you try multiple times? As you can see, I'm also running jaunty. I'd say that "n" is not selected about 4 times in 10. Because this seems to be some kind of race condition, I'll report some extra information:

Possible factors: CPU speed, kernel, Xorg

$ uname -a
Linux semyol-329-b 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:58:03 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "model name" | uniq
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz
$ dpkg-query --show xserver-xorg-video-intel
xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.6.3-0ubuntu9

I agree that importance is low right now, but if the problem is more visible with higher CPU speed, then it will be much more visible in the future.

The issue seems to be also slightly easier to reproduce if you do not close the dialog but after trying once, you clear the input with backspace and type the letters again. In this case, it's easier to reproduce if all letters ("jco") are rapidly typed.
