Everyone:

1. The kernel, once again, is prone to an annoying flaw: it produces a
Plague of Fives. Any time a text box opens up, a string of repeated
digits 5 appears. The only way to shut it off is to type "5" again.

/No/, kernel group! Do /not/ tell me I have a problem with a sticking 5
key. If that were the problem, then pressing Shift would change
"55555555555..." to 5555555555%%%%%%..." It doesn't. More to the point,
the Plague of Fives tended to go away with the next iteration of the
kernel.

Huh, and here I thought my "refurbished" Logitech Wave wireless
keyboard wasn't fully refurbished. I had a weird problem with the 5
key a while ago - the only way to stop it was to hit "5" on the number
row. No other key would stop it, and shift didn't change it. But it's
gone now. I think.


The Plague of Fives came back with the latest kernel push. Which is one
reason I rebooted to the last known good kernel. That stopped the Plague
of Fives, and also resolved an issue with some very slow file transfer
across my private network.

Again, please stop using "last known good kernel" and such indistinct
descriptions and give us the kernel version numbers involved. We have
no way to determine what you have installed and what you haven't or
what order they're listed in in your grub configs.
