I, along with many others, have a frequent annoyance where SlowKeys
gets enabled in the X server. Yes, I can work around it by holding
down a shift key to turn it off again. But is there any way I can
permanently disable it? Some way of configuring the X server such that
it never enables SlowKeys? I'm getting *really* fed up with it, and no
one seems to know what's turning it on. It's certainly *not* being
enabled by me holding down shift. And the bug report implies that the
X server itself isn't capable of turning it on. So it must be an
application that's doing it. However, I'm not running anything that I
wasn't running in previous Fedora releases, but I never had this
problem until F17 :-(


It may help to find out what program is slowing the keys down. If you know that, you may be able to disable it, or configure it not to activate without user input.

You might try this: open a terminal and run this command:

ps aux > fast.txt

Leave the terminal open and go back to work. When SlowKeys manifests, go back to the terminal and do the same thing again, putting the output in slow.txt before de-activating the slow keys. Then you can run diff on the two files to see what's changed, because one of the new programs is probably the one you want to look at. HTH, HAND.
