2011-06-17 02:36:44 Eliah Kagan description Binary package hint: xorg On two machines with significantly different hardware (a VMware Workstation 7.1.4 build-385536 virtual machine and a Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop) running the Oneiric i386 20110616.1 daily-live (xorg/xserver-xorg 1:7.6+7ubuntu1, xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.6.0-1ubuntu12) and US/English keyboard layouts, all keys work normally in X11 except for the Enter keys and the numeral 2 key on the alphanumeric portion of the keyboard. When either Enter key or the alphanumeric 2 key is pressed, the X server immediately terminates, and the following (taken from the VMware machine) is written to /var/log/Xorg.0.log: [ 2354.948] (II) Power Button: Close [ 2354.979] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" [ 2354.979] (II) Unloading evdev [ 2354.995] (II) AT Translated Set 2 keyboard: Close [ 2354.995] (II) UnloadModule: "evdev" [ 2354.995] (II) Unloading evdev [ 2354.995] (II) VMWARE(0): VMMOUSE DEVICE_OFF/CLOSE [ 2355.307] (II) VMWARE(0): VMMOUSE DEVICE_OFF/CLOSE [ 2355.404] (II) VMWARE(0): VMMouseUnInit [ 2355.445] (II) vmwlegacy(0): Terminating Xv video-stream id:0 [ 2356.052] ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log This does not occur with the 2 key on the numeric keypad, which works fine with Number Lock on (and works fine as a down arrow key, when Number Lock is off). Pressing the alphanumeric 2 key while holding down either Shift key (in an attempt to produce a @ character) has the same effect as typing '2' without any other keys depressed (it terminates the X server). This does not look like a crash, and there is no crash data in /var/crash. As expected, in the Terminal, ^M (Ctrl+M) works in place of the enter key--to report this bug I ran apport-cli in a Terminal after causing the X server to terminate by pressing the alphanumeric 2 key. In a virtual console, after the X server terminates, the alphanumeric 2 key and the enter keys work as expected. While I triggered it in a unity-2d session this time around, I have also triggered this in a 3D Unity session (tested on the Dell Inspiron E1505), and in the graphical login screen (provided by lightdm) before any session has been started. This bug has occurred with (at least) the last few Oneiric daily-lives. It is not new as of the 20110616.1 CD.
