Maybe you should clean your keyboard or the keyboard connector from your motherboard. I thought KDE had problems with clicks until I discovered tgat my mouse was slightly damaged. A new mouse changed everything. Check what is the same on all those configuration you tried this on.

Did you actually read the bug? The PIII 700 system I installed Factory on has or had: SUSE 10.1 (had factory, has final, both from FTP) SUSE 10.2 Factory from FTP Mandriva 2007 Cooker SUSE 9.0 Knoppix 4.0.2 Windoz XP eComStation 1.14 eComStation 2.0b1 Only the first two in the above list have the problem. 2.4G Celeron machine two has or had the following: SUSE 10.0 from DVD Mandriva 2006 SUSE 9.0 Knoppix 4.0.2 eComStation 1.13 Only the first in the above list has the problem. 800M Celeron machine three has or had the following: SUSE 10.0 (had factory, has final, both from FTP) Knoppix 4.0.2 Windoz XP eComStation 1.14 Only the first in the above list has the problem. On several other machines I have no such problem using the following: Corel 1.1 Debian Etch Fedora Core 4 Knoppix 3.8.1 Knoppix 4.0.2 Kubuntu 5.10 Kubuntu 6.06 Mandrake 7.1 Mandriva 2005 RedHat 7.3 SUSE 8.1 SUSE 8.2 SUSE 9.2 SUSE 9.3 Xandros 3.02 On all above Linux distros I use KDE DM/Desktop exclusively, except for one machine that is actually Edubuntu 6.06 (which only my niece uses) with KDE added for DM and me to use for system chores. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.

I did. I guess you are doomed as no other person on this list can repo the problem. I say: bug closed and let it stay that way. It takes time to examine the bugreport every time, and if only one person does have the problem that is not worth the time.

I don't think we know that more than 6-7 people have even tried, much less how many systems have been tried. I repro on 3 systems, and a commenter in the bug he says "I often see this too". Upthread Andreas wrote "try a plain vanilla installation", which, if I can figure out exactly what means, I think I will try on a 4th system soon. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.

========================================== I often see this too, especially on my main desktop machine running SuSE 10.0 and a development one with 10.1. However I have several other machines with 9.3, 10.0 and 10.1 where I rarely see it. Clearly some hardware is more prone to the problem than others. Does anyone know if it occurs with other recent distributions? Maybe KDE version makes a difference? HTH ============================================ Maybe you two should compare hardware and especially keyboards? Maybe you two have something in common that causes the problem.

sorry if I didn't make myself clear: With a "weird" bug like this I think it's best to try and install the system not "as always", but instead just chose the minimal install for say a kde system, with no tweaking or additional packages, start it up, create some dummy accounts and see if you still have the problem with the F7 key. I tried to re-created your bug with three different keyboards, two different layouts and two different connections: my old german keyboard with ps2 connector and two us-layout keyboards with usb and ps2 connectors, and they all behave as expected.

It was tough, but I finally got it to install on a 4th machine. Same problem. 100% failure. -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.

Well well, it seems to me that this an issue that can't be resolved without having physical access to your pc(s). Maybe the geek squad[1] can help?

I once heard a story from my boss and he told me that one of our emplyees always got an error. It was very weird and nobody understood what was going wrong. Untill......my boos saw that every time the employee entered data he checkd it from clode to his screen and hit with his arm (?) a button. That causes clicking OK to give an error. Maybe you should asking someone to do exacly the same at you're PC. Miracles can happen...
