Ubuntu and Keyboard Repeats
« on: April 14, 2010, 06:05:57 AM »

On certain versions of Ubuntu there is a problem with "xset" and keyboard repeats from a terminal window.

Typical behaviour is that the initial run of the ConsoleApp demo is fine, subsequent runs will display an endless stream of enter key inputs.

I spent a some time trying to track this down when creating Cmake files for Linux/Mingw and it turns out it's related to an Ubuntu bug with the a11y-keyboard plugin.

The following link should resolve the problem and hopefully save others time who encounter this problem.
