[Bug 223561] Keyboard repeats (duplicate characters) in KDE applications

does it go away after a "dcop kded kded unloadModule kmilod"
No, I got duplication of the enter key on that command, and the next command typed. (It spit back the word "true". However something you said "The problem is caused whenever , from the view of the Xorg process, the system time goes backwards." piqued my interest and tried to get the machine loaded up a bit (which is hard, because I don't have a lot on it till I get this problem solved) innn order to ggggeeeeet the xorg process bouncing frommm cpu to cpu. (drat, there it goes again) Then I looked up the pid of X and issued this command in a shell as root: taskset -p 0x00000002 3565 (3565 is X pid) That stopped all unwanted key repeats. Just to be cautious, I switched it back to 0x00000003 and so on back and forth a few times. In each case, I saw NO DUPLICATION while X was limited to a single cpu, and a re-occurance of duplication as soon as I set the process free to run on any CPU. While this is not an ideal way to operate, its provides one possible workaround. So is it a kernel bug, or an Xorg bug? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
