Bob, 

same thing happened to me the other night, and it took me a little while
to find it.  The following is Gnome-centric.  Don't know how you dod it
in KDE.

Go to Control Centre, then Keyboard, then Accessibilty.  You will likely
find the option "Only accept long keypresses" is checked.  Uncheck this,
and all should be good with the world again.

Cheers,

Allen
