This sounds like this could be a hardware error to me; the laptop is not sending the keypress release to the driver. It could also be that the driver is not catching the release signal. Is there anything about the keypress when this happens that is unique? Is it a very light tap, such that it would release very quickly, perhaps causing a failure of the driver to catch the release? Or really hard? I remember that there is an application that when it runs it shows the key press and key release events, but I can't remember the name of it. Perhaps someone else knows it. If you can run that, you can then try to replicate the error, and see if occasionally a release is missed. And if it is the way the key is pressed causing the problem. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
