Some keys do not work as expected. For example sometimes in Konsole the Return key does not work. Now with KDE 4.5.1 I had some problem in screen lock password dialog: It fed keys of my password to the other widgets as well, as if I had pressed Alt with seem. I was not able to unlock the desktop without killing the locker process from a tty. I was not able to reproduce it so far. Maybe thats some X.org issue? I still use X.org mouse and keyboard drivers as I didn't figure how to do the udev / Linux Input thing statically. And dynamically it didn't yet exact the results I wanted. I don't want mouse clicks via touchpad for example. And I think also the keyboard layout was wrong. Maybe own tweaks could be done more easily with xorg.conf.d but I didn't yet look into it and still have my quite static in regard to input devices X.org configuration file. I am using some special 2.6.36-rc3 at the moment, but I had those keyboard issue at times with 2.6.33 already. Sometimes they go away when I switch to a TTY and then back to X.org. On other times I restarted X. I never had any issues with the keyboard on a TTY tough, so I think its an X.org issue. -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de GPG: 03B0 0D6C 0040 0710 4AFA B82F 991B EAAC A599 84C7
